Bulkhead for my sump broke in half

[Prozerran]

Hello, I have a red sea reefer nano tank. I was trying to fix a leak that was caused by the sump downpipe. I was trying to get the silicon off and try to reseal it, but to my luck the bulkhead broke in half! I have no idea what to do now.

Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.

I couldn't really tell from the picture. Is it the hole for the bulkhead that is cracked or the bulkhead fitting? FWIW silicone shouldn't be used on bulkheads.

like stated above. bulkheads are installed dry with no sealer. gasket side on the wetside and hand tightened and maybe a tool to just tighten a hair more. if the bulkhead broke, buy a new one same size and scrape all the silicone off before installing it. good luck
