Similar tubing and connectors are used on commercial air brake systems, so they should be reliable.
Trust me, I've done this many times. Once I get the reactors back in the sump, i can usually fiddle with the connectors to stop or minimize the leaking. My fiance has tried as well with no improvement. I'll move the sponge on the carbon next change and see if that helps. Thanks for the tip.

Nice when equipment works well.
