Leakage at the joint?
just off the pump, pull out the joint, clean it up and silicon/glue back.
wait a while (ensure tank got aeration) and start back pump lor~

alternatively go to hardware shop and get epoxy resin. Tell the boss is for aquarium water pipe.

Although inconvenience, it should be an easy fix.
