Anybody have a double threaded spare 1" bulkhead they could sell me??? I need one quick. Setting up my 38 and my bulkhead cracked!!! Was needing to set it up tonight since I have no circulation in my tank and will not be able to fix it tomorrow or for the next few days since I'm gonna be busy

I don't know how long livestock will live without circulation, better get some on there very soon if there is livestock in the tank.

Manny, can you throw some powerheads in the tank?
that generally should hold you over for a while.

yeah brett. i'm gonna throw some powerheads in there and pick up a bulkhead from greatbarrier52. It's alright if you mount the bulkhead upside down right? As long as the gasket is on there?

Hey Manny, was that the bulkhead that you got from me? If it cracked when you put it on for the first time, I'm giving you your money back. Not much consolation tonight though...

LOL, I shoulda gone to Austin! I'm gonna either do the slip with the adapter or just go and buy one of them heavy duty bulkheads from somewhere that's double threaded. They make !" bulkheads that need a two inch hole right? If so, that'd probly be best since Aquatic Wharehouse drilled 2 inch holes for my bulkhead that needed a 1 3/4" hole

I think it will work just 1/4 " difference. Adaptor would probably be the most inexpensive way to do. 1" Bulkhead 10 Bucks, Heavy duty sounds expensive! ****, things just cant go smooth. I find that alot. Smoothe to me is come home & have everything. Does'nt happen. Never I started a pile of things that I might need. Take all the extra crap I buy back except one or two, just in case I need it at odd hours. Most of the time need something else, never fails. Trip to HD 10 Minutes away I still hate it. LOL, hope you get it knocked out.
