Anyone know what kind of bulkheads to use for a rubbermaid sump?

Just as the heading states. Not sure what kind of bulkheads to use for a 100gl rubbermaid sump. Where to get them what kind they are would be great. Thanks

i would think that just about any of the bulk heads would work. Since the material isn't as think as glass I would add some silicon on both sides of the bulk head though to make sure it gets a good seal. As for a specific type; I think that depends on how you are going to hook it up (ie threaded or slip fit). You can probably find a bulk head at your lfs, if not Marine Depot sells them. I've also heard that you might be able to find bulk heads at stores that sell spas, but I havent confirmed that. Good luck.
