Questions for Phosban Reactor 150 users

Hi guys, I am thinking of adding a phosban reactor to my tank. I don't have a specific problem with phosphate but I think it will contribute to the overall health and coloration of my corals. I don't have a sump, so I will use it as a HOB. It is hard to get a feel for this thing by reading about it online, so I had some setup questions. The first thing is, what size tubing do I need with this? In one of the catalogs I have it says 3/8" ID. Online I just noticed it says 1/2" ID. I'm hoping its 1/2, as most of the small powerheads I found have a 1/2" output. Also, what kind of return does this thing have? I'm assuming it is just another hose connection, and I will need to run the hose to some sort of nozzle. If anyone has experience with these and can help me out I'd appreciate it. Also if you have any setup tips for a HOB function, or if there is anything else I will need to buy to set it up this way please feel free to comment. Thanks a lot.

The one I have uses 1/2 hosing. I fed it with a Minijet 400. There is a vavle that you put inline to make sure the flow is slllooowwww. You dont need a nozzle just place it back in the tank.
