That piece is just the tube-ending, you need to close the tube or you will have a great risk of fountainlike things
Tubing as a res is good, but a regular res is better.
My personal experience learns me that for optimal results (res-like), you best use a Y piece which is mounted horizontally (and the split-endings above eachother) with the 'res-tube' on top, and the circuit-tube at the bottom. When mounted like that you won't have the problem that with high-flow systems the airbubbles miss the 'res-tube' and continue in the circuit.
Off-course, after a few days even in a high-flow circuit a regular T-split 'res-tube' will have worked as good as all the rest, it just takes a bit longer.
