Hello guys, I’m going to add an inlet to this sewage pipe and I noticed that there’s a leak from the septic tank where the pipe is attached. (See picture) Is it normal? Thank you for your eventual answer.

No, septic tanks should not leak. Get it inspected and fixed
No this isn’t normal need to get this looked at. Either the connection to septic tank is busted or and the incoming discharge is not making it completing into the tank, or the connection is leaking and your septic tank is backing up.
Thank you. It was the connection. I fixed it.
