Excellent idea! Start a build thread and keep us updated.

What size bulkheads will you be using?

Will do!

Don't know.
What do you recommend for a 135 gal?
I would like to be able to move about 2000 gph max?!

Follow his instructions to the tee, for your size tank, i say the recommended 1.5 inch bulkhead and drains are perfect the way it was designed.
only problem is, i don't know a single person on your side of town that has done this or have a hole saw that size. maybe someone will jump in.

U can find the drill bits cheap online.

Glassholes has them as well.

Thanks all
I'm going to try a glass co tomorrow and if all else fails maybe call Donnie @ City Pets.

I really need to start a build thread.

From my understanding, most glass companies, don't want the liability.

 

[DonnieKim]

Yea I called a glass company but they don't have right size bit

i just drilled mine for 1.5 inch bulkheads. you can borrow my bit if you want, or buy it since i won't need it anymore
