saltwater snoopy Posted October 30, 2016 Author Share Posted October 30, 2016 sorry typo Threads on the back of the bulkheads, everyone has sumps i believe there ABS threads, thanks for the help Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JasReef Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 If you are talking about these threads on the outside they are not made to attach to anything. They are only meant for that nut to thread and snug it up to the aquarium wall. Be sure the rubber gasket is on the inside of aquarium. If the ID is threaded you can thread it or if it's slip you will need to glue it in with PVC glue. FWIW I looked for the same thing with my first bulkhead.

+FluxCapacitor Posted November 1, 2016 Share Posted November 1, 2016 Remember volume isn't the same as flow. Put a good pump on there and it'll turn your water over pretty fast. You'll get good velocity putting a strong pump on a small pipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saltwater snoopy Posted November 5, 2016 Author Share Posted November 5, 2016 yes thats true, part of my problem is im getting some unwanted sunlight in the morning from the side of the window blinds, and it not as close to the AC as my 45g and my 40+ is not only close to the AC but also has sump tied in your rt if i have 3 drains 1"fm the top on a horizon setup 1 for each 3rd of the 100g then going to split the supply to the display into 2 or 4 one on each end then maybe two about the middle if i have enough pressure cant wait still need sump and mix station to go then ill have the bones done on both systems, if i run all feed in 3/4 an 1/2 that should keep my pressure up Sent from my SGH-M919 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
