None of the plumbing supply companies or LFS had any of the 1/2" variety. Only 3/4" & up. Decided to order online.

Thanks! Looked them up online & it's actually Warehouse Pool Supply.

Thanks guys!

Any clue as to where to get a 1/2" bulkhead fitting locally?

Thanks for all the welcome msgs! I had planned on getting sand or crushed oyster shells from either Palacios or Matagorda beach. I wished I was into SW setups last year. We went to Destin, FL & played in the white sands there. I'll make sure to do more research before plunging in.

I've been keeping freshwater tanks for almost 20 yrs now & currently have a 240 gallon FW community tank. While touring a LFS, the girlfriend fell in love w/the colors of a reef setup. So I've decided to convert the 92 gallon corner tank into a reef ready setup. It's been sitting in the garage for a while & deserves better. I recently got a good deal on a 75 gallon DAS tank & 100# of LR off craigslist. It's got a built-in combo overflow/filter/skimmer unit.

My plan is to gently remove the combo unit & use GE sealant to afix it to the 92 gallon. I also plan to make a trip to the coast to get a cooler full of sand or crushed oyster shells. I'm still doing my homework on properly setting up the 1st SW tank. Know anyone that'll transfer the combo unit for me for a fee? I'd rather pay than procrastinate on the project. See the attached project tank.

Everything is SOLD.

Will take $300 (or $200 without the lights).

Also will entertain offers on everything minus the MH lights. I could always use them on a planted FW setup.

I got this recently, but decided against setting up for now. It was a reef setup: standard 75 gallon tank, wooden stand, overflow box, Berlin skimmer, 10 gallon W/D filter, Ehiem pump, a pair of 250W MH pendant lights & misc accessories (powerhead, chemicals, etc.) I've never done a SW tank before & really have no place to put it (except the garage). I live in Lakeway, but work in South Austin. It's still loaded in the back of the truck so I can also deliver for the price of gas. All for $350 + gas. PM or call 363.3624 if you're interested.
