Water jug top off system??

I am looking for the water jug top off system that has two small diameter hoses coming off of it that act as a water top off system. The jug is the same as the ones used by LFS to sell saltwater and RODI water. Anyone know where i can find the ones with the two hoses???
thanks

You can make one yourself easily. Take a milk jug, drill two small holes in the cap, then insert some rigid tubing in there and finish with silicone. Shouldn't take more than 15 minutes of your time.

I know how to build one, but there was some company that made one that i saw a while back that looked very well made.

Thanks for your input though

So far the nurce is the closest. I am just going to make my own.

Does anyone know if this method is reliable or is one of those cheap things that never work?

I have used a nurce system for several years now and the system really does work. Don't really know why they stopped making them. You just fill it and forget it, never had a problem of any kind this system works.
