Can anyone tell me what all of u guys r using for hose clamps on your skimmer pumps and submersible return pumps. I was using the stainless steel hose clamps the ones with the screw to tighten but they started to rust. I just ordered some plastis ones from that fish place but don't know how good they willl work. If someone can tell what they r using and where I can get them it would help me out a ton. THANKS.
