What size and how many holes, also what thickness is the glass. Darrin
it is a 20 gal tank so the glass is not thick. i would like to do a 1" drain and a 1" return. would this be good for this size of a tank?
Should be fine, if you need to go smaller for some reason the drilled hole is the same for a 3/4" and a 1" bulkhead.
cool thanks. I have done some more reading and i think im going to go with a 1" drain, and two .5" returns. Can you help me drill it??
dvincent- hit me up when you get a chance
I am going to loan my 1 3/4" bit to robert for a couple of days as soon as i get it back i can help you out. i don't have a bit for the 1/2" bulkheads so i may need to order one if you really want that size. DarrinOriginally Posted by !v@n
thanks man, i don't have to go down to the 1/2". do you think if i did one 1" drain and 2 3/4" returns it would still be ok. i am trying to get the most water movement in my tank so that i don't have to use a powerhead. since it is a small tank i want to save as much space as possible.
No problem, robert just informed me that he will not need the drill bit till next week so if you want to drill it friday or saturday let me know. Darrin
im up for saturday, or friday night after work. what kinda beer do you like?
Call me friday and we can probably get it done that evening. i will pm you my #. Darrin
