So I was doing a little maintenance on the tank when Alex asks why the fuge is leaking. Confused Needless to say OH Censored!  Now we have to find the leak. 
I blame Tim and his leaking 125.  Wink  JK but hope it works out for both of us.

well that was easy enough, for now.  I'm going to have to pick up some silicone tomorrow while I'm at Fish4U.  The plumbing on my fuge is a little lose and when I moved it it torqued just enough to leak.  A little silicone should fit it up nicely.
It's kinda sad I have my own little thread...

By easy she means ripping down the entire refugium taking it across the house and using the the sink to find the leak...then taking it back across the house and doing a temporary setup till we can get the silicone.Wink

Good luck with the leak. It probably will be easy for her; she's got you!

Eva, You can get silicone a lot cheaper at Lowe's. I use the GE silicone I in the white tube .. just make sure you don't get the anti-mildew .. (silicone II)

Cool.  I'll look into that.  I hate paying so much when I've had a lot that needed sealed.
