Ribbed hose rarely splits along its length; the rubber connector at each end perishes faster because it stretches every time the hose comes off for cleaning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDoes this fit the Fluval 305 or 405?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo. Those use a larger-diameter connector, part A20067, sized for the bigger hose on the 305\/405 and 306\/406.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fluval","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55293313450275,"sku":"SP298","price":26.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/7236\/5347\/files\/SP298.png?v=1782880372","url":"https:\/\/nicksaquariumoceanariumterrarium.com.au\/products\/fluval-104-105-106-204-205-206-rubber-adaptor-for-ribbed-hosing-2-pack","provider":"Nicks Aquarium Oceanarium Terrarium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
