Leaky sump baffle


I just finished resealing my sump baffle for a second time and after 24 hours it still drips in one corner. This first baffle is the intake compartment and houses my skimmer. The drip is very slow, kind of a drip,,, drip,,, drip thing (if that makes any sense to anyone!) so its doesn't lower the water level in my sump chamber. It is dripping into the bubble trap.

Question is, do I really need to go through the ordeal again of resealing? Done it twice already and I wonder if it will ever seal. Should I just get it up and running or does a little drip matter? This isn't an outside leak, just a baffle leak. Thanks!

I wouldn't worry about it personally.
