Yoiks, dodged a bullet there, good thing it turned out ok for you. Some good points to note in your experience, particularly having the electrics somewhat out of the way. I've seen so many photos of systems with power bars etc in close proximity to the sump or under the tank in the cabinet. If it's feasible, and one should make every effort to make it so, keep all your power bars and receptacles well away. An option for when it might not be that feasible is to fit outdoor or water 'resistant' type covers over any exposed receptacles.
