Alternatively 1/8 ID threaded nipples bought on Ebay (get a bag of 20 for a few bucks) or buy from 3W which they use for their tanks. Its not rocket science.
Can you please share the link on ebay where you got the 1/8 threaded nipples.....

Hydroponics, plumbing and heating suppliers, auto stores, garden stores, model boat dealers, compressed air tool suppliers, welding stockists, computer water cooling suppliers and aquarium dealers.

Like I said a bag of fittings as many as I needed bought on Ebay.
