Bulkhead broke in half, HELP!

[Prozerran]

Hello, I have a red sea reefer nano tank. I was trying to fix a leak that was caused by the sump downpipe. I was trying to get the silicon off and try to reseal it, but to my luck the bulkhead broke in half! I have no idea what to do now.

Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

Seems you are a new user that posted some external links...as such this site has jailed your post until a moderator approves it...we cant see anything yet...
But a broken bulkhead just needs to be replaced...plain and simple...get er done...use caution to avoid overtightening the next one and ensure your piping isnt placing extra stress on it..

Reefcentral does not allow external links so just repost your thread without any links. Also, agree: you just need to replace it. If it is low in the tank you need to get a rubbermaid container and move your rock and life into it (or buy a big enough new aquarium which you can use as a QT later. If you cannot but a bulkhead locally, usually with a heater and enough flow (can even gerryrig the lights) you can keep your tank alive like this for several days until one comes online. Almost every LFS and online site carry bulkheads. As above, you will be tempted to overtighten it: resist. The rubber gasket has to sit flat and it won’t if you crank it too tight. Gasket and main bulkhead inside, tighten the nut on the outside. Most tank use threaded bulkheads so you won’t need to get and PVC fittings or primer/glue. If your broken one is not threaded then you will need to.
