I've had the need to do something similar for a slightly different
application.   Go to the electrical supply/wire section of your local
hardware store and get a length of bare copper grounding wire (heavy
stuff about 3/16" in diameter).  Run this through your soaker hose
and you can then bend it around to conform to any shape you want. 
Think Gumby!

I would guess that the microbes would also benefit from the trace
amounts of copper that such a setup would make available.  In my five
gallon setup, I have a copper elbow fitting tied to a piece of string
that I toss in the CT as it's brewing.
