I tried home depot, but of course as usual I couldn't find anything remotely close to it. : /
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Those are hard to find. What I do is use a piece of silicone vacuum hose instead. Slide the nylon tubing into the silicone hose and then use a tie wrap on the silicone hose to tighten it up. Works great.

well what I ended up doing (it's more expensive this way) but you'll have exactly what you'll need...
go to home depot again
buy 1 brass insert threaded T fitting (it has internal threads at each end)
buy 2 brass or plastic insert threaded to 1/4" barb fittings
buy 1 brass or plastic insert threaded to 1/8" bar fitting
assemble the "T" and you'll have exactly what you want. it's a lot bigger than the plastic type but this will insure the connection. sorry I don't know the exact name of the fittings so I did the best I could
