I'm so sorry Anthony.
 Good luck with the survivors.This hobby can be so harsh sometimes.

It was touch & go for Poofie there, but as soon as it warmed to 74F, he started swimming around & ate 5 freezed dried pink shrimp. The only one that is still a ? is the Sargassum trigger.
Thanks for the encouragement everyone. It does suck to lose so many fish from something as little as this, but at least I had a really good day/night spending time with my baby girl, Felicia yesterday. With so much work, really haven't had a lot of quality time in the last few weeks. The corals & anemones came through the crisis no problem. Really hardy specimens I guess. Anthony

that sucks, so what was the cause.. you mentioned a blowen fuse in the title but no info on that.
I know this is a little late now but what I have always done is set my system on at least two different breakers.. so I will have one heater on each, my return pump on a different one that the powerheads, and lights split between the two. this way if I blow a fuse or a power bar I still have heat light and flow.

Very sad stuff, sorry for your losses. I recently had a similar experience so I feel your pain, it's very hard to replace certain livestock especially if they were well adapted.
As Steve said it's always best to have your system on at least two independent breakers. I run noncritical loads like lighting, skimmer and other filters on one breaker with GFI and critical loads like the return and heater on another breaker without GFI. Also avoid using power bars as they are often prone to failure.
