On Mine Field Pond

I see nothing wrong with this plan.
 
The island should have a trebuchet to fight the racoons.

If only I could use my tweeting energy to help Cassie with her pond!
 
Cassie to make sure to tell us every day that she hasn't fallen in?
 
I HAVE NOT FALLEN IN.

I am having trouble locating the proper pvc connectors so I can use the drain bulkhead that came with the tank. I DON'T WANT TO DRILL HOLES IN MY GLORIOUS STOCK TANK.

Why is it hard to find a threaded 1 1/4 inch male pvc connector on Amazon? Am I not looking in the secret pvc section that only men with plumber butts can access? Also, I don't want to buy something that doesn't fit, but I may have to take the risk. WAIT A MINUTE, now I can find it on Amazon. AMAZON IS PLAYING TRICKS ON ME.
 
Good update!
 
Do you have something like Screwfix over there?
 
I had to google that, because I thought maybe whisky is talking about PIPE DOPE. Of course we have hardware stores in Americaland! We also have big chain stores that sell most of that stuff. I will have to go to Ace next week. I'm sure they have all the fittings and I just found out they are much cheaper than the ones on Amazon.

You need a rubber duck for your pond. You could name it "Dr Dave's Strong Duck"!
 
It's a classic use for ponds.
 
It's how Henry VIII killed nine of this wives.
 
I bought fittings today, they were cheap so I got what I thought I needed and a couple bigger ones JUST IN CASE. But the 1 1/4 inch threaded pipe thing fits in one side, but not the other. The drain is threaded on the inside, and I was hoping I could screw a connector in from the outside and the inside so I can connect STUFF to it. Why is it smaller on one end than the other? grrrrrr I wish I'd grabbed a 1 inch instead of a 1 1/2 inch.
 


SAVING THIS FOR REFERENCE.

Also, I talked to my brother about the fittings, and now I am not so grrrrr. I'M GONNA USE SOME CAULK.
