The best price I've seen is from Aquatica in Orem.  They don't have them out in the open, just ask Shawn for them.  I think I paid like $7 each.  I'd call to make sure he has the size you want.  Anyone know someplace cheaper?

Bruce, I have a couple of 1" bulkheads that I'll sell you for $7.50 each.  They are brand new.

Have you considered using a powerhead so that there are no holes and no chance of leaks?

From a Rio 1100 on up to the biggest pumps, they all work. There are other brands with equal or better head pressure. The amount of water flowing through a refugia should not be massive so that's why powerheads work. And they are quiet too.

 Mark are you saying to use the powerhead to run the water between the 2 containers? I would think that it would be near impossible to syncronize the rate of flow from the tank to the same speed as the power head.
