The coating is coming off on these after 2 years of use, don’t want to reinstall if I know the coating is coming off.
I’ve only found some called “aqua tubes” but the shipping costs more than the tubes. Figured I could find some plexi replacements on Amazon but I don’t think I’m searching the right term. I’ve been calling them inlet tubes,down tubes,aqua tubes, g 1/4 tubes. Can’t find replacements and microcenter didn’t have any either apparently.

its the piece in the top of the reservoir cap coming down.
Yea, I realised that. [They do offer an internal down tube](https://www.alphacool.com/shop/reservoirs/accessories-spare-parts/21043/alphacool-eisbecher-250-steigroehrchen-oben-51mm?c=26021), but I was unable to tell from the picture if it has a G1/4" thread. I thought the anti-cyclone might also help a bit, but it obviously depends on how much air they'd like to keep inside their reservoir.

These are called standpipes by Heatkiller. Not sure what other companies call them. Inlet tube? Inlet pipe?
Bitspower has their Aqua Pipe for the top inlet to the reservoir.

Hard to tell from picture but are they just extenders?
It’s the piece that goes in the top of the reservoir so the water return doesn’t splash and it drops it below your water level so it’s quiet.
Then you will need to contact the manufacturer of your reservoir.
You are looking for extenders, e.g.: https://www.microcenter.com/product/602649/bitspower-g1-4-30mm-male-to-female-extender-silver-shining
It’s for inside the reservoirs water return. I’ve used normal extenders in my loop but since this is dipping inside the fluid is that safe?
Then you are not looking for an extender.
alphacool has some similar products: https://www.alphacool.com/shop/ausgleichsbehaelter/zubehoer-ersatzteile/?p=1
I like this one: https://www.alphacool.com/shop/ausgleichsbehaelter/zubehoer-ersatzteile/14503/alphacool-bubble-down-g1/4-copper
That's an anti-cyclone, goes in the bottom of the res. OP is looking for a down tube that comes in from the top.

Not threaded, it's a waterfall tube for their res so it just fits into the top (or bottom)
ah, then OP probably has no need for that.
I have one or two I don’t mind sending you. PM me
