Drilling the black plastic ??


NY11

Recommended Posts

I am thinking of drilling a new hole lower in the black plastic divider in my 12 gallon nano cube, and putting in another powerhead to create more flow. Has anyone had any experience with this, and if so, what type of bulkhead did you use. I know the cube came with some type of locline bulkhead, but I'm not sure where to get one, or what size hole to drill. Thanks.

This is super easy to do. You can buy the bulkhead online from several aquarium suppliers; Marinedepot.com is where I got mine from.

You dont need a bulkhead. Just drill a hole the same diameter as 1/2" pvc. Then insert a 1" long piece half way through and seal with pcv cement. It is very similar to how the right side is done from the factory.

Thanks for everyone's replies. I think I may give it a try. My cube is filled now, but I'm thinking about taking everything out, cleaning it up and drilling a new hole for a pump. Thanks for the help.
