Pre-drilled tank question

[codytbuckner]

I'm going to buy a frag tank from a LFS. The guy said it was already drilled. This is fine, as I planned on drilling it already.....but here's my question. Can any overflow work? He said it's a 2 inch hole. Or will I have to buy a specific overflow to match where the hole is?

Unless the tank was drilled for a particular overflow, highly unlikely some random overflow would fit.

Where is the hole?

A 2 inch hole will fit a schedule 40 1 1/4 bulkhead, or a 1 inch schedule 80 (1 7/8 inch hole, but close enough).

The LFS sold the tank before I could get there. I'll just end up buying a tank and drilling it myself
