Hello. Can anyone give me a idea what size bulkhead I have so I can replace all the piping? It's a 150 gallon. If that helps. Thank you

Can you see, or do you know what size the white PVC pipe is? And, is that a reducing elbow in the first pic?
 
Then, because I do not see any reductions, my own guess is that they're 1" bulkheads. I'd let a few others chime in and give their opinions however, and get a consensus.

When you re-plumb, I recommend glued fittings, in combination with lots of unions. :)
And, bulkhead gaskets go on the wet side, not the dry side.
 
I could not tell for sure, but thought they might be. Pretty common mistake. The McMaster-Carr website is a great place to get all one might need, and at a good price - again, just my opinion. :-)
