anyone have the problem where the nylon nuts on their skimmer, reactors, or any in sump products from avast? they went in smooth at first assembly but after a few months in the sump, it seems like the acrylic/pvc/nylon have swelled up and they are near impossible to tighten without the help of pliers. i feel like the more i turn the screws, it will just shear the head off leaving me stranded.
i thought of retapping the holes or getting stainless/titanium($$$) screws. would Justin please let us know what size thread you used so i can get the right tap? are there any other suggestion on how to free up these screws?
