I drilled my 1" bulkheads and 3/4" bulkheads with the same size holesaw. Is their another solution besides moving the tank back 4" and trying again with the correct size? My return lines that are inside my overflow are leaking out the bottom here.

Can you clarify?
Where did you drill the holes? In the glass, in the overflow bottom, in the wall, side of tank or bottom of tank?
What do you mean by "moving the tank back 4" and trying again"? I can't make sense out of this right now.

One possible solution: change all plumbing to be sized for 1" bulkheads.
 
Hopefully, you have room to put a 3/4 reducer inside of a 1" bulkhead and connect it all together?

I think this is your best solution.
 
Im sorry i tried to delete this. Looks like i was only capable of deleting the picture.
I need to cut out a porthole basically where my bulkheads are. My dt sits on a half inch Sheet of plywood. The bulkheads will tighten down to the acrylic bottom of the tank and not my plywood now.
Hope that clears some of it up. Lol
