Default grinding/cluch problem

alright so today i was leaving college and my clutch was to the floor. i put fluid in,drove it and 2nd gear grinds now. i figured maybe it was cause it needed to be blead so i did that,still grinding. my trans did grind at 7500 rpms or higher before in 3rd and 5th,but iduno why second is doing it now.only 2nd grinds on normal driving though. also my fluid seems to keep getting lower,im guess that can be the slave cylinder even though there doesnt seem to be a leak from there but my question is can this be causing the grind? the clutch still does feel strong like it has pressure build up?i also noticed some fluid at that bottom of the resevior like a leak,how can i fix that. btw. gsr motor b16 trans in eg hatch. thanks

You have a leak either in your clutch master cylinder or in your slave cylinder. When my master cylinder was leaking due to a very mis-adjusted pedal (pedal was coming out wayy too much) I was getting some grinds too because the clutch was never really fully in, so the gears/teeth are still somewhat spinning when you are trying to engage a gear. You know how if you let go of (engage) the clutch when it's only half way into the gear, it will grind? Well something similar like that might be happening. I wish I could explain it in better words.
