When I had a PEG, I took a neck holder for Flash memory, that had a disconnect so I could easily free the PEG, and used it to support the PEG under my clothes -- No tape and the PEG hung free.

I also found out that I could adjust where the PEG tube fit inside, so I could make the flow better for sitting or standing, by pull-push and a little twist on the tube -- There was definitely a wide spot on the inside end of the tube so it wouldn't pull out of the grommet.
