Default Rubbermaid stock tank drain plug size?

I thought that the 150 gallon Rubbermaid stock tanks had drain sizes
of 1 1/2"....but when I tried to attach a 1 1/2" male pipe into the
outlet, I realized it is actually smaller than 1 1/2". If it isn't 1"
and it is 1 1/2".....what the heck size is it? Anyone else run into
this problem?

1 1/4 is fairly common, and regular water hose size is near that.

That's just John, a man of few words! He'd rather spend time digging holes
than typing answers G

Does anyone know where to get hold of a rubbermaid stock tank in england???
I want to build a skippy filter as the design is really cool but can't find anyone who can sell me a rubbermaid stock tank, which is needed for the design...

Any help greatly appreciated...
