Sorry to hear this happened, good thing you guys came home from a walk and found this instead of sleeping and finding it in the morning, I made the mistake of using 2 stealth 250w heaters in my sump and by fluke at 3 am a few months back was woken up by screams of a fire on my tank.... I ran up the stairs and saw there was a fire underwater in my sump, I am greatfull that no corals died from the toxic fumes of melting plastic and the 2x4 stand didn't catch on fire.... The house could've burnt down with people sleeping in it!

I use titanium heaters now!
