I know this may seem like a simple task, but my luck i would order the stuff and it wouldn't work. I am wanting to put a pump inside my res so i can just use a watering wand instead of bucket bombing 1 gallon at a time. The hose needs to be about 15 foot.

There is the watering wand

There is the pump. The pump has two different adapters, 3/4 and 1 inch.

I need to know what i can use to connect the two together using adapters or w/e the case may be. Thanks in advance for any help
 
Hey man. Maybe I can help you out. It looks like that wand just has a standard female connection for a standard water hose. So you can buy some hose such as this: http://www.amazon.com/Sunterra-303420-4-Inch-PVC-Tubing/dp/B000I1RRVG/ref=pd_sim_lg_1
That's 3/4 inch tubing for water and you'll hook that to your pump on the 3/4 inch adapter, obviously, and using these: http://www.amazon.com/Precision-Bra...GMBG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1331828303&sr=8-1
Then you'll need a male connection for the other end that should screw right into the wand if it has a standard female water hose connection at the bottom like I would think. Like this: http://www.amazon.com/Nelson-Brass-...?s=lawn-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1331829366&sr=1-11.
So at a roundabout total of $35 you should have everything you need. Assuming you have a few basic tools; clippers or something to cut the hose if needed, a flat-headscrewdriver for the clamps. I believe that is it man. Hope this helped you out.
 
I think you will need a bigger pump, I emailed Monster Gardens here a while back about the same wand with same intentions as you. I asked what all I would need. Still have their email saved here is what they told me....

Any pump with a hose connection will work or you can buy a hose adapter to attach to the pump (we sell in our fittings section). I recommend a pump rated at least 950 GPH and higher. That's all you need. Thank you,
