Will change things, but I have no PQ graph for a reservoir.

I am in the process of blowing up my code in order to enforce tubing ID to barb OD correctness, so will post new model soon.

Additionally, i will be using 7/16 tubing which should reduce the lip's effect on flow, correct?

Ahhh, but due to the smaller ID, more restrictive than 1/2" tubing. I cite lack of PQ graphs and testing, and declared overall it was the same and don't cater for it. You lose on the tubing, win with the lip, and so flow wise you're even. Flexibility wise you're ahead, so you win.
