I bought the Marineland 60ga cube with the overflow, and I'm just at my witts end trying to figure out the best and most failproof way of setting up the plumbing on it. I'm really leary of just gluing things to the bulkheads, and I've been reading that a lot of people are having noise issues.

If anyone has any tips/tricks and especialy photos of how you did it, I would be very greatful! It's the only thing holding up the tank transfer!

I glued mine and regret it. One didn't glue right and leaked. I ended up cutting it off and putting a threaded elbow on the outside of the bulkhead and then plumbing into that.

If I were doing this again, I'd glue into a threaded elbow so that the plumbing is removable because these bulkheads are all but impossible to replace.
