I have a Cadlights 50g that has been sitting empty for a few years and I finally want to start it up. The holes drilled on this seems to be metric at 22mm for the two smalls holes and 42mm for the middle large hole. I can seem to find any plumbing that can be close to this in either metric or imperial. I had another one of these tanks that had all the plumbing included and I sold that one a few years ago. Now trying to get back into it again.

Any suggestions would be greatly welcome!

Good luck on 22mm but for the other one:
1" ABS Bulkhead68mm/2.67"42mm/1.65"1” PVC or 1” NPT Threads

Note: You should remove Emergency Icon....just IMO.
Thanks!

How do I remove that? I don’t think I even added the emergency icon. Appreciate it!
