Help with no-kink hose installation

texaskoiboy
16 years ago

I am currently installing my new pond. I have 2" no-kink hose that I am trying to connect to a barbed fitting. The problem is it is a REALLY snug fit and I can't get the no-kink hose on very far. Any suggestions to get the two together?
