1) I was thinking 1/2" bulkheads for returns as the outlet on my return pumps is a nipple for 1/2" hose. Does this make sense?
I want them as high as possible because I'm trying to be conscious of back siphon in a power outage and my sump is kind of small (the small tank beside the Flex on the desk is NOT my sump. The sump is below out of frame)
2) Glass appears to be 6-7mm thickness. I need advice on hole placement to not break glass.
Edit to add: My concern is about hole placement relative to the edge of the glass. I don't want break the tank near the return bulkheads. The measurements are in the pictures. I'm looking at drilling a 30MM hole, 30MM from the edge of the glass. Is this too close?
See the images below.... sorry, the red text was much easier to read in the editor I was using. the red text just says "30mm"
