They come cheap rubber 90 degree angel fittings that are prone to leak

Mine have never leaked because I put a plastic I ring clamp on them

Phosban Reactor is good for in sump use. A bit of leaking is not an issue. Their design has any drips just going back into the sump.

I've been using them for a year and a half. Keep the o-rings clean and don't over tighten and you will be good. I also put the supplied tie wraps on elbows and never had leaks there either. They have worked great and would buy again if needed.
