You're using grommets and everyone here is either using quick connects or E&F fittings.

You need to buy a hex shank spade bit set and then size the grommet to the bit.

Medimary, I went from those seals to ebb and flow fittings. The fittings or bulkheads are the bomb..

If you want to see, I have a grow diary for a while back called Tubgirls. I basically did a passive current setup with those fittings.. Only drains tho.

lost I just read the whloe tubgirls thread(great thread, pre mpb), but I couldnt find where you mention what size drill bit(hole saw) you used for the grommets.

u dont by chance remember off the top of your head?
thanks my friend... if not no worries.
I also plan on taking ur advice on the ebb and flow fittings u posted earlier, I just have some extra grommets I never used laying around, just wanted to do a little experiment, but when I do my 4 plant set up eff and flow all the way:smiley_joint:

Damn Medimary, I forget. I have a hole saw set so I just match the seal to the hole saw size. I "think" it was 1 1/2 or 1 3/4..

The best way to size grommets to bit sizes is to go to home depot/lowes. It's very difficult to size it correctly by going online.

And then you still have to test drill/fit the grommets. Buy a lid and start drilling!
