leaking reservoir!

Hello all, I have a 6 planter bubbleponics and as I was starting a new grow with it, I noticed that the drain plug is leaking. I tried setting super glue around the plug to prevent leakage but it wont hold. Is there anything else you guys think i could use to stop this?!? its not a lot of water but is dripping every ten seconds or so and that is too much for me lol.

SILICONE SEALER will provide a good water tight seal or decorators caulk

Thanks AMCHEESIER! I just got back from town with Great White pipe joint compound and its working wonders already!

So you glued your drain plug shut

How about a rubber seal so that you can still drain?

Fuck sealers buy a new one and fix it while the old one in use and swap it out. N*gro rigging a reservoir is asking for issues later, they are cheap enough to be disposable when they break so you do not have to worry. Make sure you do better job or buy a thicker mill reservoir as cheap wall mart containers and the like are flimsy and are not rigid enough for drain plugs.

lol I didnt glue my plug shut. The hole you insert the plug was apparently to big (i blame Stealth Hydro. since i just bought it) so ihad to seal up that small space. nothing too bad, just a couple drips every few minutes. but anyway its like new now and my plug is working perfectly

I just hate any holes in general.. go get a buckethead from home depot for 20 bucks and just suck it out.

Glad to hear



Sorry a hug is the best I can do without a like button

This is why i use a pump to change nutes and water top off's ,not real keen on cutting holes in something that don't leak and my buckets sit over my pumps and a couple fans. elec&water=bad day

Agreed. But what is the name of the pump you have ThegrowerMOJO? Imight have to go check it out eventually
