C360

My Marineland C-360 is 2 months old. I took it apart to clean it this weekend and now it leaks! Up until this point it has never done this. I took it back apart and the O-ring seems to be fine and I didn't see any cracking but still it leaks. Any suggestions or anyone here dealt with this on this particular canister?

It starts back up fine after it primes and runs for about 15-20 minutes before it starts leaking. The leak is coming out from under the handle.

I contacted Marineland and they said that the leaking is actually caused by a problem with the valve block. Anyway they sent me a brand new filter. Great service. I had the new unit about 1 week after I first contacted them.

Update.....My wife wakes me up this morning and tells me that the new filter is now leaking in the same place that the old one was!!! The entire bottom of my 125 stand was flooded. I think I am done with the Marineland Canisters!! This one barely even lasted 3 weeks.

Mine isn't spewing bubbles. There is a constant flow from underneath the buckles. I contacted them again and they are sending yet another unit and want the old one back to check it out. The first one ran fine for 2 months until I serviced it and the last one only lasted about 2-3 weeks. I followed the instructions on the DVD to the letter on this last one just to make sure it wasn't user error but to no avail.
