I've used clear plastic tubing (from the hardware store) on the bells of 4 different tubas over the last 15 years and haven't felt the need to join the ends.

Occasionally the gig bag pulls the tubing off a little, but this would happen even with the ends joined (it pulls the middle, not the ends off), and I imagine it's easier to put it back on without the join.
