Fluval 406

My fluval 406 is leaking where he clips are ... what should I do..??? It’s been happening since last night. I took it apart to make sure the rubber seal was properly in , which it was. I also put Vaseline on it.. it’s about 3 years old and now I’m thinking about buying another one

Maybe just call Hagan on Monday and have them ship you a periodic maintenance kit with a new ring.

Do you see any cracks in the lid?

Hagan Customer Service - Caren is one CS rep. really nice 800-724-2436 This is the number I got via email to order if I needed something (saw a different one online). USA phone number.
