I'm looking for 1.5inch bulkheads. anyone know where to get them locally? i'm having an issue with my overflow. I should know better than to F around with my tank. SMH
Also, if someone has the Know how to drill this B*tch then I will PAY YOU to do it. Or sell me a 200g+ tank. That's my ultimate goal anyway.
Thanks

F.W. Webb company in Augusta would be your best bet locally. If you don't mind driving then I bet Jason at easy aquatics in Gorham might have some. It's a possibility that Dennis at deep sea creations could have some too.

Oh by the way, both deep sea and easy aquatics can drill tanks.

drilling a tank is easy! just get a diamond whole saw (ebay under $20) and some plumbers putty to build a dam to hold water around the bit, low speed drill about 2min and your done

Found them at Redlon and Johnson. $10 a piece. I didn't realize they were this big though. Going to have to build a new overflow box behind the tank.

I have all the tools to drill a tank, but you need to make sure it's not tempered glass. Tempered glass will just shatter

I appreciate it, but upon further consideration I think I will just keep an eye out for a different, larger tank. When I find one I will be drilling it before it is full of water. I'm too scared to have water all over my floor.
