To explain about 1" that for my opinion as layman is wrong.
Here is EU metrics.
VDL PVC Durchführung mit Klemm-Mutter
20 mm x 3/4 inches
25 mm x 1 inch
32 mm x 1 1/4 inches The measured Eclipse 3 bulkhead can be only 1 1/4 inch and not 1"
40 mm x 1 3/4 inches
50 mm x 2 inches
63 mm x 2 1/2 inch

"Hello,
Thank you for your email and the good comments.
You're right, in the USA, we use a inches system and all the bulkhead we called it a 1" but actually is more than 1".

I know will be a lot of sun but windows is high quality and let's see Last one on direct sun didnt created me too much algae as crew was allways ready but if will need some curtain venezianer or up down one will place on frames of windows. But UV protection is high also heat also stop sol is outside 3-ple glass different thickness and Argon inside do nice job. Outside is aluminium inside wood frame glued parts of wood layering.. I'm not expert for wood but it's just covered original colour of wood with tiny layer of lack. Wood is Spruce.

Approved rocks from our sea adapt very easy no matter lower temperature and also anemone that I bring once was very good but I decide to not taking from sea any more as much I can.
Some small rocks and empty shells yes...
For information when I was young in 1975 I was 12 y. Old on coast I found many species that now after 40 years last time I sub was difficult to find. Why? Tourists mostly from Czech Republic was many times catched by local sea authorities police on sea that taking huge amount of shells live and I remember this shell when I was young Albanian shops selling placing inside one bulb in this time no Led and metal support to keep shell up. Grrrrr.
And whenever I check snorkeling it was in each shell one small white almost transparent crab cleaning her and live inside...
This is shell that grow up to 1 m but now it's forbidden and protected. Tourist from Czech and Slovakia and Romania was taking them home as well lot of urchins ect...no offence to anyone of this countries but talking about which they catch with yachts to destroying sea bed...it's not 3 or 5 shells but hundreds...of course.
There is also another bacterial attack on Mediterranean sea of Haplosporidium pinnae I Mycobacterium that killing them...

Now question for you guys: purchased Bali sand from Aqua Medic 0,5-1,2 mm size 20 kg = 40 Euro
and bigger 2-3 mm size also 20 kg = 40 Euro. But seams that will need much more to prepare at least
few cm of bottom. Can someone can do calculation "please"how much will need for 4 cm min.
as size of aquarium inside when cancel thickness of 1.5 mm acrylic on both sides is 127 x 57 height is not
important here...me and math 0.
How you suggest to place this on bottom of tank? 2 cm of small sand than bigger on top
and compacting a little small than place bigger even if i think some fish will escavate this...no issue.
Of course all 40 kg will be washed and flushed with RO water before placing in tank.
Or to mix both together and place on bottom and voila? Or its not so good for low undergrond
non oxigen bacteria that i think? Correct me if Im wrong long...
Thanks for help.

Can't wait. Let's test MHi wires.
Top part have a hole and thread that I will use thread with chrome nickl screw.
Bellow part is some kind of spring and return blocking to wire if you push it down you regulate simply height of lamp. Pulling out of course on oposite side not going.
