You guys have a Western Pump on #101, 17950-106a Ave

If you didn't know it uses a different glue that they have as well.

Gregg's Distributors sells it for ~$1/ft for the 1" stuff IIRC.

Hot tub places and nice that some are open on Sunday when you need that little piece.

which location did you go? is it a walk in? or do you need a business license?

[mr_alberta]

I've been to both the south and west end locations. Walk right in, find the part number and tell the guy at the counter how much you want.

[tbone]

thanks for the info.

wow greeg is huge!

does anyone know where i can find 1.5" bulkhead fitting?

Reef Safe Silicone can be had from Canadian Tire.

If you are going to use GE Silicone I make sure it is Windows + Doors stuff not kitchen and bath! I repeat not kitchen and bath!
Kitchen and Bath silicone has mildew resistant chemicals in it and will wreak havoc on your reef.

I think the stuff at Canadian Tire is a Mastercraft brand if Im not mistaken.

Grrr i was gonna get that! well i guess it's another trip there tomorrow.
how long do i need to let it cure before putting water in the tank. as well is there a faster way to speed up the curing process?

[mr_alberta]

I think for full strength, you have to wait until it is fully cured (~7 days).

dang, thats pretty slow :(
would i be able to speed up the process? using a heated fan?

[muck]

I have put water in tanks a day or two after the silicone has been done.
Personally I would wait 48 hours.
