I tried using a big pair of pliers and couldn't budge it. It must be encrusted with calcium deposits or something. Other than the delinquant fish in the overflow, I have no other reason to remove it. I plan to put some finer mesh on the to to keep fish out in the future. I think this fellow swam in through the eggcrate baffle.
BTW, I'm not worried about the bulkhead cracking, when I had the tank built the guy supplied me with 2" schedule 80 bulkheads. Those things are huge and tough.
