listen to them, install the bulkheads the proper way. silicone will not seal very good in a bulkhead, I add a think layer of silicone to all parts but I install the gasket the proper way also.

and yes there usaly are two ways to do something the proper way and the wrong way. don't set yourself up for problems using the wrong way. I did this myself, which is why I know. I had one with the gasket on the wrong side and one proper (was 1/2 asleep when I put my plumbing togeather) anyways both were siliconed also and 2 years later the one started to leak and it was the one with the gasket on the wrong side.

no big deal, next time you do a water change it is easy to fix.

Awww Deny, that's sad- really sad that you can razz, but not be poked. Maybe you need a really tight hug around your neck so you feel the love I have for you!
