Faucet Adapters/Plumbing Question

I'm trying to figure out how to get both my Python hose pump and the adapter for my RODI unit to fit on the same faucet at the same time... Looks like I'm going to need some adapters to make it work, but my idea is to have the RODI adapter on first, then the python faucet pump after it. This would allow me to run the Python for water changes as usual, but if I want to make RODI, I just flip the valve on the RODI faucet adapter and water goes to my RODI unit... My question is: does anybody know the sizes for the connectors on these separate pieces? I really can't tell by holding a ruler to them, as I know some faucet sizes are 55/64" for instance.

I've attached pics of:

1. The faucet adapter for the RODI (came from BRS)
2. The Python faucet pump (same size fittings as the standard green one)
3. The adapter on my faucet to attach the Python attachment.
4. the Python attachment held beneath the faucet (I want to install the BRS RODI faucet adapter between them.

So if anyone knows the exact sizes of each of these fittings it would allow me to order the correct parts online. I know the Home Depot here in Manhattan won't have a good selection of these fittings.

That's a good idea. I actually just discovered that the brass faucet adapter can connect the rodi adapter to the python adapter. So I'm halfway there.
