There is actually a 1" hole drilled on the other side of the tank (formerly for a return) that I was going to use for a fancy water changer. I suppose I could do an upwards bend and run the pipe just under the euro brace for an emergency. Then just do a standard durso.

Another random question.... How would a ball valve fair underwater? If I could have an interior valve I could make the water changer and an emergency drain work! haha.

it will likely encrust with coraline and other algaes and become a royal pain to use. Not impossible, just troublesome
