how do you secure the flex hose to the sump

[mrpergo]

The title pretty much say's it all.
I bought an Epps R-100 sump and have a CPR CS-90 HOB overflow box. The sump tank came with a 3' flex with sleeves that go inside the bulkheads on both ends. I had it hook up in the garage to do a leak check on my tank and push those ends in and no leaks and no problems but I'm not trusting that in my house..:lol:
I was going to hard pipe and have all the fittings and such but to get to where I need to be will be nuts with fittings. This piece of flex just drops down and over where it needs to be with no problems, I just need to make sure its secure.
Thanks in advance for the assistance

Some people just shove them up into the bulkheads and call it a day. If it were me, I'd use some silicone to insure it doesn't leak or pop out of the bulkhead under the tank. I'd also devise some sort of hanger system to eliminate any sagging and additional weight on the fitting that goes to the bulkhead under the tank. Personally, I'm not very fond of those hoses but then again, I have a large tank and use 2" flex PVC for my drain lines which are glued into place. In a smaller tank, I can see how those flex hoses could be convenient and have had one tank with them. I just don't like the fact that they sag when filled with water. As such, I prefer something more rigid like flex PVC for my drains.

I did the shove thing in the garage and everything was fine but I would have nightmares if I left it like that in the house. I have decided to silicone both sides of the slip and hose clamp the flex on both ends to the bulkheads. I did want the hard pipe but I'm coming from another cabinet and with 6 45's a union and a rubber boot it just was too much.
This will work...... I do believe in ghosts , I do , I do , I do.........LMAO
