I haven't had a heater blow up but I did have a mishap where my MH and Pc's fell in the tank. Not sure why but I didn't loose anything. Skimmer pulled rusty colored skum out of the tank for a couple of days from the various metels that coroded due to electrified salt water.

Sorry to hear.

I can offer up some xenia for when you get your tank back up.

Wow... so very sorry for your heartache. :(

Oh man. That really sucks, sorry to hear about it, man.

Like someone mentioned above, maybe some local fellow reefers can offer up some frags? Or something?

Don't give up! If something like this happened to me, I'd want people to tell me not to give up, throw a little encouragement my way.

Good luck :smile:

Bummer man.. sorry to hear that. Keep your chin up, it can be rebuilt, (bigger and better? :lol: ) I remember coming home from a weekend of camping to a 20g stew (MH's were left on for days) , I can somewhat relate to being so discouraged.. it will pass, and the bug will still be there just as it was before. :mrgreen:

you beat me too it now im thinking i just need too go bigger .

ya i got some cleaning up too do but everything died pretty instant in my tank. on the plus side my cyano seems to be doing just find i think im going to vomit lol you cant kill that stuff

Man that sucks. My theory....... If you have your heaters in your sump and have a grounding probe close by the electricity should go almost directly to the grounding probe. So none of the electricity should make it's way into the display tank thus reducing a killer jolt to any livestock. Now if you don't have a sump I would put the probe as close as I could to the most concentration of electrical things in the tank. This is just my thoughts. But man don't give up. Take this oportunity to make any changes you've always wanted to and start again.

Condolences man. It really sucks that this happened at this time, but going bigger & better is the way to beat these blues.
