I have 1 1/4" bulkhead fittings for my new 125g tank.
I installed them with no problem. I went to the Home Depot (Monday) and got some 1 1/4" PVC plumbing parts to build up the sump plumbing.
Got home and they don't fit. Seem too small. So next day (Tuesday) I go back and return all of the 1 1/4" parts and bought 1 1/2" parts and gookd them home.
Well they were way to big. So back to the Depot (Wednesday) with a bulkhead in hand this time.
Nothing fits!
The previous owner had just wrapped teflon tape around a 1" PVC pipe and shoved it in.
Is that how you plumb these things??? What am I doing wrong?
Thanks, John
