Does anyone think this tubing connection will be a problem? I know nothing about plumbing and this is my first plumbing job

I would 100% get a heat gun to soften up the tube and push it all the way down on both ends. Not even worth the risk.
Metal clamps not good

Ok..that was the conviction I needed. I swear the guy told me the metal clips would be fine; ie, not rust. Thanks
Jesse Garcia uses Metal clamps and they never rust!!!!
short term, I think Ill just try some zip ties. This is just a dry run in the garage, so I can fix later.
At least push the tubing all the way on...
Get aka (sushi) to help u, he’s the expert of plumbing on this forum!
Now now. I have not plumbed much in my life, I am no expert. I did plug some plastic tubing onto my chiller and pump though, and I pushed the tubing down all the way
Yes, will do that. This was just a dry run in the garage. So far, worked really well (no leaks, nice smooth flow). It's a really tight fit to the first return pipe in the overflow. It was really hard to get that small vinyl tube to fit that way it did. But, when I move it inside, I'll figure that part out.
If it is not weight-bearing, it might be easier to get silicon tube on there. I replaced a little 4 inch piece of vinyl tube between my pump and chiller with silicon tubing and it almost completely eliminated the vibration noise. With vinyl, the motor would make the whole chiller buzz and it was really annoying. Anyway, the silicon tubing was easier to work with because it is softer, so it might help.
