i have a 3/8 tube but it just slides right onto the scrubber inlet. Does it need to be an air tight connection?

It will suck air in from the path of least resistance. If the tube is a snug fit almost the diameter of the inlet then most likely it will be fine. But if the tube is smaller diameter and there is obvious room around the tubing for air to get in then you have a problem that would need to be addressed.
