SEA CLONE SKIMMER PROBLEM!-FIXED!

[Ichthy]

I got my filter problem fixed
now i have a 150 skimmer problem
If anybody has a Sea Clone skimmer, please help me.
The little pipe will NOT go all the way in the big canister
It will lock but the problem is that it leaks.
It is brand new less than a week ago, the thing is that i got it from ebay
No parts are missing and i still have the box.
I was wondering if anybody who does a Sea Clone Skimmer for up to 150gal. has had this problem and how to fix it.
