I ended up Ace hardware, stepping down clear irrigation hose (3 different sizes). Lots of hose clamps til I got to 5/8. The found a cheap hose repair male hose connection 5/8 to 3/4. All worked great no leaks. Word of caution-the plumbing plastic 5/8 to 3/4 will leak, that’s not made to connect a garden hose to. Just find the regular hose repair end, that worked fine and $1.70 ish at Menards. I’ve been removing when not in use, but in theory this fountain connection can be opened up until it’s not pushing water out the end to the slide.I don’t care for the angle the water comes out of the fitting so I swap back to the regular eyeball return. Doesn’t take too long

This is exactly what I've been looking for. Is there any way you could show more of how you connected the fountain to your water return? And also, how do you turn off the pool slide and have the return go to your pool as normal without unhooking everything? In your video I could not see the connection from the pool water return to the fountain. Thanks!

Also, how do you adjust the pressure?

I bought hose, sprinkler and 3/4 barb. The sprinkler does not fit the return they are different threads and does not accept the1 1/2 adapter included in the sprinkler. How did you do it!
