Default Yeow! Stray voltage??

Hey guys,
Ok so I look into my sump tonight and notice that the protein skimmer isn't really churning out so many bubbles. I just hooked it up (Berlin XL) after getting a turbo upgrade pump for it. Anyway, I reached into the sump to turn the flow know up a bit and Zap! At first I thought maybe it was the salt water getting into a cut on my finger but the second time was definitely electrical. I unplugged everything and stuck my hand back in there and its fine with nothing on. So, besides knowing to unplug everything and the fact that none of the cords are wet what the heck is going on? I don't really know much about electrical but could it be a faulty pump or something?? Anyone got any suggestions?? (besides keeping my hands out of the sump :D )

TIA
