Isn't there a tool you can rent that expands the pex which then has memory and 
returns to original size?  Seems I saw that on This Old House.RonWild CheriC&C

 Hit send too soon.   Maybe you could get a pex by barb fitting and go with a 
short piece of hose from tank to the adapter then go pet from there.  I know, 
not ideal but could get you what you want...

Stus-List fittings for water tank 
You should be able to find a compression fitting that would work.  Plumbing 
pipe size is  the inside diameter.   Compression fittings go by outside 
diameter.  What is the tank made of?  The tubing sticking out may be meant for 
hose too go over and clamp

fittings for water tank 
Hi Everyone,
I have a question that I'm struggling with. I have a 1973 C&C 30 MKI, there is 
a water tank under the vee berth and under the starboard settee. 
Both tanks have two small tubes protruding out about 2 inches. From I can see 
they look like copper tubing, I'm wanting to change the tubing over to 1/2 inch 
pex pipe. I ordered pex reducer fittings (3/8 to 1/2) to go over the copper 
tubing. When the fittings arrived the 3/8 size was too small and the 1/2 inch 
size was too big.
Not sure what to do. Anyone have any ideas on how to tackle this problem. 
Ultimately I would like to change everything to 1/2 inch pex. I looked at the 
tank and I think I would destroy it if I tried to take the copper fittings out.
Cheers,
Tom PowerInvictusC&C 30 MK1Fredericton,
