Hi all,
I am trying to get my 29 Cube running and am running into a problem. The top of my return hose is seeping water at the joint of the plastic return even with the hose clamp as tight as it will go. I am wondering if my pressure is too high; but then again, think it is at a good rate for the sump and tank. The pump is an Aquaneat 1500 l/h or approximately 400 gph. The sump is a Megaflow Model 3 and the tank is a 29 gallon cube running an Eshopps pf1200 overflow. Any help would be greatly appreciated. My only idea is to silicone around the hose, but I doubt it will hold.
