i just bought a 180 gallon aquarium which came with a wet dry filter. When i set up the filter the first time a couple of the connections were loose and they leaked. so i went out and got some teflon tape and tube tighteners for the tubes. i set it up a 2nd time and .... it leaked again though not nearly as bad. any suggestions on how to fix theis problem?
 
more teflon, LOL

make sure the connectors are the right size, that will explain why they're loose

if you are really desperate, you can silicone them, but that is not suggested as it is permanent
