Leaking Pipe Suggestions

[smpross]

Hey Guys,
I am in the process of setting up a protein skimmer on my 90 gallon tank. Since it will not fit in the sump, I am blcing it next to the sump and running PVC up and over the side of the sump to the pump and skimmer. Here is my problem, Where the elbow and the PVC Pipe meet on the outside of the sump leading to the skimmer, I have a small leak. I have already used the cement to seal everything. Is there anything I can do short of cutting off the elbow and trying a new one? Also is there any reason that I would not be able to use flexible tubing to go from the sump to the protein skimmer? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Scott

flexible tubing would fine to run if you wanted to. as far as the leak you could try shutting it off for a while dry the area and put some of the cement on the outside to stop it from leaking.

Marine Grade Goop from Home Depot will work if you don't feel like taking everything apart. Just put it on with a Q-tip, cause once you put it on something, its not coming off.
