Hey guys, just have a question! I just purchased a jebo uv sterilizer and i guess i was using too much force while putting on the output tubes and i damaged the seals. I have a leak occuring and i attempted to use silicon but it doesn't appear to be holding well enough. It only leaks a small amount. is there another substance not harmful to my fish that would make a stronger seal. Also i'm sure i could use the silicon but would have to cover majority of one side in silicon. To make almost a silicon cast. Any suggestions on the best way to rectify this leak ?
Also while installing it i broke the only bulb i had and bought the wrong replacement bulbs. :shock: wasn't the smartest install i've ever done.
I'd try and return it all and start over with a new one, heh.
Me too. "It was like that when I bought it." lol
The store will just mark it as damaged and send it back. That's what we do. So easy.
Mettle: Who do you think you are, 328iguy or something with that gigantic graphi-sig??
No. Just bored, heh.
well i purchased it from a member and not a store and it was working prior to my breaking it... :(
Plumbing stores or HD sell PCV cement, few different kind for PCV, ABS and CPCV.
PVC PLUS, on Collinaid(sp?), sells everything you might need.

Go find it at a store. Buy it. Then return it with the broken one in the box. Full money back. :lol:
