    I get my tank and sump tonight and I'm having a real hard time finding a bit to drill glass with and correct plumbing? Is there a store not online I could possibly go to and get the correct fittings and diamond coated drill bit? Need Help ASAP.

    Sorry didn't read detail, some hardware stores will have them at a ridiculous price.

    Yeah, you are pretty much outta luck with finding a decent price local on diamond drill bits. BRS sells nice ones.

    What size plumbing will you be using? Bulk reef supply sells diamond drill bits and bulkheads that match... For about the cheapest I can find...

    Whoops, sorry!

    I guess check for local plumping specialty, or a glass shop... Either might have it.
