You might want to try some Teflon tape on them. Snug them down well, but if you have a o-ring on it you can deform it if its to tight and that can cause it to leak to.

EDIT: I f you put some Teflon tape on it, go ahead and run it on up over the o-ring to, that can keep it from deforming as badly..

Also, for future reference. do NOT over tighten the barbs. Just till it's a little beyond a firm snug.

Do not over tighten barbs - in case of crack use JB Weld to seal them.
