I just purchased a teratec ex600, it works fine and dandy , I pump the water in and it runs for a whole 5 seconds then starts leaking out of the sides, can anyone help?

when you say leeking out of the sids is it the sides of the pipework or the canister ??

may be the O ring, take the top off and use vasoline to helo make a good seal, till you can buy a new one.

Out of the side of the canister, It was brand new. But after a bit of fiddling, taking everything off and redoing it, it is fixed. THanks for the responeses guys.

Looks like a good filter, but boy they are tight with instructions

Many Thanks
