WOW - what a link.

I need hole for a closed loop I need for a 4 way which I first plumbed wrong. It would not work due to to many bends and this lost all my head oreasure. So I need to Drill. I was looking at having to pull the pane of glass out and sending it to get drilled - looking at over â‚¬100 for this to be done then would have to put it all back together.

Gonna order from Lau and get the bulkheads I need first.

Quick question, I was looking at bulkheads from this supplier - http://www.coralculture.co.uk/shop/i...?cPath=157_159 they have a 32mm tank connector which is the size of my plumbing. AM I better off getting the Savoko fitting? Just want to make sure that I get 32mm clean through the glass.

Thanks again for this thread - RC rocks.
