By the looks of it, the AquaTube has replaceable barbs and you could swap in a 1/2" barb to go from the res to the pump, and leave everthing else at 3/8" tubing leaving the pump, through the rest of the system, then back into the res.

Good luck with your system.. be sure to post pics of it once you get it all together.
