So second time my drain bulkhead has decided to come unthreaded and leak within a week on my frag tank -- both times it happened while I was in the room. What are the chances? No clue why it's coming loose. One time I tightened easy by hand and this time I did a bit harder with a wrench.
Any reason I can't glue the bulkhead? I have a union right below it with 5-6" to spare so I could cut/couple probably twice if I had to.
Id consider this an emergency situation so not sure I can order another bulkhead. I have uniseals but no clue how to do that since the stand pipe would need to sit in the top of the uniseal. How would I connect that to the drain into the sump?
Thinking of just gluing the MFer... Can always dremel it off if I ever need to...
Frustrated...
