I've got a same problem. If I don't tight enough then water leaks from cap.

i'd recommend running any reactor above your sump if possible that way it's not a big deal.

It looks that the o-ring shrinks a bit therefore it can't seal right. it always take me time to get it to seal. Today I could not get it to seal. I use the reactor for carbon. Going to see if I can pick up o-ring that a bit bigger than tlf reactor
o-ring.

I found with my 2x 2LF 150 reactors that there was a clear peice of flat plasic with the o-ring that needs to be removed!!!

Make sure that you dont have it in there between the o-ring and the plastic of the reactor or the cap.

I dont have a pic of mine but I have garbaged it on both of my reactors...

That worked, took the flat plastic out and now I can get it to seal properly.
Thanks.
