I need longer tubing for a Fluval 205. I would prefer tubing from Home depot or Lowes vs buying more Fluval tubing.
 
It should be 1/2" according to this chart. Get the clear thick wall braided hose at HD, I'm using it on my 305 and it works great.
Just dip the end of the tubing into HOT water to soften it, or else you can't fit it over the valve barb.
 
The off the shelf black tubing at Home Depot works well on my Fluval 203.
Their clear doesn't seal as well for me, and is usually too flexible or too stiff depending on the supplier.
