Pipe Sizes

[drunktank]

Just have a question about the size of piping I should be using.

I have a 120g AGA tank, w/ their overflow kit, anyone know wut size the 2 bulkheads are and what kind of plastic tubing size I should get to fit?

AGA normally uses 1" for the drain and 3/4" for the return.
You would need these dimension as ID vs OD.

so how do i determine the ID and OD? to attach vynl tubing or PVC?

The ID/OD is typically printed on the tubing itself.

Usually they should fit 1" PVC pipe to 1" bulkhead and 3/4" PVC to 3/4" bulkhead as well. However, vinyl tubing is little different I would bring the fitting or bulkhead to local HD or Lowes to find the right size.

well i guess i'll take the bulk heads off and run to lowes... lol thanx
