Default my radiator is leaking. need help asap!

in my case, i see that my top hose is not sealed completely (i'll seal it up soon). some coolant drips out from there. my radiator fan is on ALL the time. and i see some coolant dripping from the bottom as well. i know for sure my radiator fluids are draining down constantly and i'll have to fill it up again. i'm not getting overheat issues...the meter is up 1/2.

any ideas?
