what type of powerhead is it? could there be some electrical leak into the water?
If they are made for aquarium, they should not have any dangerous coating, at least I hope! I use koralia and never even washed them prior to putting them in the aquarium. Quote:

If you have a film on top of the water, that indicates to me that the top of the water is still. ( I don't know if I'm right, just trying to rule stuff out to help you )
Try placing one of the powerheads just a few inches below the water suface (not high enough that it sucks air into the powerhead). Aim the powerhead up so it agitates the surface, this will create "waves" which will help with gas exchange as well as add more oxygen to the water, it will also drop the temperature of the water. Higher temperature water will decrease the saturated oxygen level in the water. Adding powerheads generally raises the temperature. Also if your salt level is on the higher end, this also decreases the maximum saturated oxygen level in the water.

I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

I'm thinking a little different to most on here. Did you was your hands before you stuck them in there? Could be a poisoning thing going on in there?
