tank drilling?

[Snider82]

oh boy... i almost forgot!,  i beter get to the liquor store!

actualy, i was thinking,  maby i should  be getting my overflow box build and let the glue sit for the night,   then after i drill,  glue it to my tank wall.... and let it sit...

im hopeing i can fill my tank and put my rock back in right away becuase its going to be in a NEw garbage can waiting to get back in its home.

so i went to home hardware, home depot, and even canadaian tire, and i couldn't find any fittings that would work with my bulkhead.

the bulkhead is 1.5" threaded inside diamater.. i found elbows that i can use for inside the tank for that. 

the outside of the tank part,  its 2" outside threaded,  i cant find a good setup for it..  i think i bought too big of a bulkhead?   wolsly (in pembroke) may be able to order me a fitting to go with it.  guess i have to put the drilling off till another weekend.

another question... and i use ABS glue on my fittings?  or will that be BAD for the water?

thanks

The bulk heads ive had are all PVC, you can use ABS glue and ABS... there are enough people out there who have used it, some that I personally know, that have had no problems so I think that the debate is generally over.  But again, I'd double check cause all of the bulkheads i've found are PVC.

But bottom line, yes, ABS glue is safe.
