Bulkhead

[dlb]

I purchased a used 125 galloon acrylic tank. The overflow is in the center of the tank. It only has one hole in the overflow area. It is a 2 inch hole. Does anyone know where I can find a 1 Ã"šÃ‚¼ inch bulkhead? A 1 inch bulkhead is recommended for a 1 Ã"šÃ‚¾ inch hole which is not quite large enough.

Thanks in advance for your help.

if you use a heavy-duty 1" bulkhead it should work, they require a 1 7/8" hole.

What would be better would be to drill it out to 2 3/8" and use a heavy-duty 1 1/4" bulkhead.
