Just measure hole and then check specs on existing or just go to Depot once you measure to see which match size...thats what i would do at least.

Measure the hole is your best bet. That will not be the size bulkhead you need but will tell you what size once you look it up.

Best bet is to take the bulkheads you have ..go to home depot and see what size PVC pipe fits then you know the size of the bulkhead.most talks come with 1 inch bulkheads that go to the sump and 3/4 inch bulkheads for the return.someone here might correct me if Im wrong but all the tanks I had where those measurements. let me know if this helps
