Bulkheads Needed

[Bifferwine]

I need two of them. One hole appears to be 2 1/2 inches in diameter, the other 1 3/4" (I think). I'd much appreciate it if someone could help, I was supposed to have my old tank out of my old house this weekend

Thanks,
Sarah

Hey Sarah, I am sure if you swing by Oasis, Hector will definitely have the bulkheads your looking for. He is really good at keeping them in stock. Just tell him Akimbo sent you!

Thanks for the suggestion! (Although if I did swing by, chances are the store would be "open", but the doors would be locked and no one would be there... At least that has been my experience with that store every time I've tried to shop there except for one time).

I was actually able to rig something up with ABS pipe fittings from Lowe's... Miraculously they fit. Errrr... I made them fit. We'll see if it holds water tomorrow.

If it doesnt hold swing by Michaels or Ace and pick up some E-6000 silicone adhesive. I had a major leak in my skimmer and it sealed up perfectly! The stuff is great! Its strong enough to actually bind and seal a tank if you need it to.

Wow, sounds good. I'll have to try that. Hopefully it will work out. I have to have everything from my 240 gallon moved into it on Sunday, so it'd better

Yeah lol. Why you downgrading?

 

[Bifferwine]

The 240 is just too much work, and too big. I never thought I'd say that (I went from a 55 to the 240), but I've had the 240 for a few years now, and I bought a new house, and just didn't want to move with it. I want something more manageable. Not to mention the electric bill from running everything for a reef tank that large.

240s are easy when FOWLR lol as a Reef Id go nuts lol. I'm in the process of stocking a 40g custom with fish and CuC.
