Returns, I went with 1" slip outside of the tank in order to use street 90's for a lower profile to the wall and 1" threaded inside the tank that immediately splits to two 1/2" loclines.

Overflow, both sides 1" slip so that I didn't have to worry about adjusting the bh if the threads didn't align in the direction the pipe was headed. Glued on the outside, press fit inside the overflow.
You got pics

Of just the bulkheads?

Here is a side view installed. It looks like I had to step down with a reducing bushing from one inch to 3/4 on the inside before splitting into dual half inch.

Are you talking about buckhead's for the returns or drain lines?
All thee above. I have corner over flows. The type of drains are candy canes (lack of proper terminology) the return use one set of holes in the corner over flows.

Sounds like you have a single durso in each corner. Now would be the time to convert those to Herbie and drill the back for your returns if you want to do so. You would use the return line hole in the overflow as your emergency drain.
Well the bean animal is out of the question. I only have two holes.
Your correct the dorso is what I have now.

The herbbie must be what your talking about

Yeah that's what I said above.

"Now would be the time to convert those to Herbie, if you wanted to do so"

My 120 has a durso and it's loud and needs retuning often. I was very happy to move to an easier to tune system when I had the chance.

Or just one Herbie, 1" main siphon in one overflow and Secondary one inch in the other and use the 2 3/4" holes for returns ;Writing ;Bookworm

Or is it just the single overflow I forget ;Bored

Make a list!

Get things on paper so you aren't thinking about everything at once. Tackle each thing and move on.

You got this homie.
Looking for what type of bulk heads to order
