i have some metal jubilee clips on my return pump from my sump, and these will rust in time, just wondering what else i can use to tighten my pipe on my return pump.

Stainless Steel Jubilee's

Even stainless steel will rust over time, but its no major thing.

A lot of people really worry about the oxidation of ferrous metals, but a number of divers will tell you of the intense coral growth (including SPS) that occurs on the hulls of wrecks of steel ships.

They may not be as useful once rusted, but it is not going to have any major effect on the tank and its inhabitants.

IF you want to get away from steel, you can find these in many sizes.
