I just recieved my nitroduck tank today. The seller lied to me and I was told it was an x-stream tank. It turns out it is a Nitro Duck Mega Reg tank. That doesn't worry me at all. My problem, is how the heck do I fit this thing on my marker?!

I decided I'm going to go with a remote, because it will be the cheapest way. I do not know how to connect a remote to this though and some help would be greatly appreciated.

I was told I could remove the 90* elbow attached to the reg (for macro) and put a connector for a remote there. I don't care about quick disconnections etc. i just want the cheapest solution. Give me some ideas!

Thanks!

P.S. http://www.nitroduck.com/megareg.htm - THIS is the tank.

well, that tank was setup to mount off the marker witha drop i think? and then you run a macro line into the marker.

or you can have the regulator changed.

anybody else got an other ideas?

Well, on my remote hose the ASA can be screwed off. The end fitting on the remote hose that is then available is a male, just like the one on your tank regulator. You can buy in most hardware stores a single fitting (brass) that will let you connect male to male. The fitting will be less than $5. Can't get much cheaper than that.
