No, my quarantine tank is beside the frag tank, with the power bar on the floor (smart thing #1). Aquaclear filter hasn't been cleaned lately (smart thing #2) and dripped onto the frag tank power bar. I thought I smelled something last night, but (smart thing #3) I didn't see anything and ignored it. Tonight, I get call from wife to get a$$ home now, as house is on fire. As for the chiller, it just decided to work properly since I posted. Go figure...

![]() Woke up one morning and no movement in my tank except for the HOB skimmer because my wife decided that rather than turn off the timer to shut off the light the night before, it was a much "better" idea to shut off the whole fricken powerbar.
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This is why I always try to have different equipment on different powerbars so a short won't shut off ALL the flow or all the heat.
