What brand? Did it just come off or did it break? Pictures?

I'd get a new bladder. Any repair is not likely to have the integrity of the original, not that the original was all that hot in this case.
 
It is a Zeagle. I dont know the model. I will try to get some pictures. The bladder is clear-ish vinyl. Thanks
 
Yes, a bit more info on the actual type of repair you want to do please.
If you just need to reattach the hose or fitting-that is very simple.
If you have a tear in the bladder, that is a bit more complicated, but no reason not to if the vinyl is in otherwise good shape.



See these threads for a couple of repairs done on vinyl bladders:

EDIT: I see we were posting at the same time, I will wait for your pictures.

I'm trying to post pictures not having any luck yet. There does not appear to be any damage. The fitting is just not attached to the vinyl anymore
 
The fitting will pull right out of the bladder.
