Question Gluing overflo kit

Hello,
I am in the process of setting up a 90g reef-ready tank and have a few questions, the first is regarding installation of the overflo kit. Pressure fitting the return tube in the bulkhead is fine, no leakage, however, the drain tube does leak so should I cement both tubes in their respective bulkheads? LFS folks tell me it's not necessary, that pressure fitting them should do the trick...hmmm?
Also, is there a reason why the aquarium manufacturers don't drill a larger hole in the tempered glass bottom because I don't think a one inch hole is enough? Is it possible to increase the drainage of a predrilled tank so that I don't have to cutback flow of the return pump?
Thanks,
Bill the OlGeezer
