Leaking tank

[Charlie_11278]

My centerflow bulkhead has a small leak how can I seal it?

Take it out clean it, and check seals for damage then clean surfaces and try it again

First try tightening, BUT Not to the point that you squeeze the gasket and make it worse.
If still leaking, lower the water level and into buckets to salvage water and check and replace if necessary the gasket. If NOT AT all possible for now, Duct tape ( just kidding ) but apply a bead of aquarium sealant around entire bulkhead But make sure this is a TEMPORARY fix.

I had one that would not seal completely to save my life. I put a light coat of Vaseline on the glass side of the gasket and never had a problem again.

I siliconed it and I'm going to replace the piping
