aquarium supplies

Went by lowes today to pick up a thu-glass fitting for my return line from sump with no luck. Looked a few other hardware stores as well.. I'm filling my 90 now and need to get something tuesday so i'm not stuck at a stand still until thursday. Any one have somewhere that stays open past 6 that they can recommend? The PVC is 3/4.. so I guess that makes the threaded thru fitting 1".

Thanks

I dont know what part you are looking for , but I have a ton of extra plumbing that you are more than welcome to if it helps you @ all ... Maybe you can post a link to a picture of the part you need ....

sounds like you are looking for a bulkhead? UA has them i'm sure.

I have them as well .... I am pretty sure ... Also UA is closed for a few days I believe ...Someone correct me if I am wrong ... If I have one you are more than welcome ...

I'll take a look at my plumbing box and see if I have a spare. I am just around the corner from you so if I have one you don't have to make the drive to Roanoke.

sounds good ... I just looked and I do have one just in case you need it ...

Well thanks Ade and Eric for searching. Still looking for a bulkhead that will match up with 3/4 pvc.. looked at all the pet shops in roanoke last night to no avail.

Talked to sjdyer last night and he thinks that he has some "new". I ask him to check and post a reply.

Sorry all I had is 1 +1/4 ... I will keep looking through my mess ...

I appreciate it.. I ordered a couple from PA today. I don't expect to see them until monday due to the holiday. I would prefer to pick one up by the weekend, but I'm at the mercy of local availability. I may head to lynchburg thursday if all else fails and they have them in stock.

I'm planning on building a sump for my 90, but would like something other than the rubbermade tub for the time being while I study up on the acrylic process. My usable space in my cabinet is about 40W x 14D x 28T. I was thinking a 29 tall or something. Anyone have anything around they might want to sell?

Did you make it into Lynchburg on Thursday and find the bulkhead that you needed?

they only had 1/2" and 1" bulkheads so I didn't make the ride. I ordered some supplies from premium aquatics that should arrive Monday
