Those Primochill ghost barbs are easy to put the tubing on, but I recommend wrapping them (to protect the knurling) and then using a pair of pliers to make sure they're in tight enough to seal properly.
Tell me about it..... I was using them on my res and had my first ever leak during leaktesting. To top it off... the lower one leaked initially, and then after I replaced it, the upper one started leaking!!!! They're on the shelf for now. I'll use them on the test bed where I have better access to them to ensure they're tight in place.
