Default Bulkhead

Another quick question I had is whether the rubber o-ring for a bulk head goes inside the tank against the glass or on the outside of the tank against the glass? Does it matter?

Where is a good place to get plumbing parts in Calgary? I found Home Depot wasnt extensive enough.

Ok I have 3 parts that I am having a hard time finding.

1. 1/2" Ball and Socket PVC (Lock line I think its called or something?) I keep finding 3/4" but not 1/2"

2. 2" PVC Gate Valves

3. A 1 1/2" Y Connector

Do you have all those parts? If you do, I'm literally going to come by tomorrow. And if thats the case I would also probably get a small sheet of 5mm glass cut, I think 13 and 1/2" x 11 and 15/16" but I can talk about that there I would think.

Anyways, let me know.
