Believe it or not the humidity in the room is not bad (top of tank and sump are covered and skimmer is vented to outside) I never sealed the inside of the tubing but did seal the end of the rack where the wires come out with silicone so in theory the unit is sealed and moisture should not be able to get into it. Even if it does rust a little I don't think it will cause any issues.
