I am in a similar situation, and dont want to thread jack, but what resolution ever came of this?
I have 2 acrylic sumps flat together, 2 perfect holes in each, with 1" bulkheads, and they leaked the first time i put water in to test :/
I did not have a gasket on the threaded side (yet) and used silicone in between the 2 sumps. which obviously failed.
This thread is one of the only ones I could find that had the same concept. Just trying to find a solution.

thanks!
Did you try putting the gasket between the sumps rather than under the flange (or an additional gasket between the sumps)?

I didn't go this direction. Figured it was asking for trouble later
