The power bar in the side probably quit working if you pull it out and plug everything into another power bar that could be a temporary fix.

are you getting shocked from the tank or is your gfi tripping? you could try only running the pumps and see if you still have stray voltage.

If you have some empty salt buckets why not use them to house the livestock until you get the problem sorted out? Cheap plastic rubbermaid container will work as well. A little circulation & heater should be all you need. Live rock can be kept in another container, wrapped in wet newspaper if necessary. What size/model is the Red Sea Max?

good to hear Natalie. I would be interested in the tank if you want to sell it. PM me if you do.

I would like to thank Natalie for the live rock and all the livestock. I am very grateful to her and really feel bad about the tank that shorted out. This filled both my 20g and my 14g Nano's. As soon as I put the pistol shrimp and Goby in the tank the excavation started. That shrimp should be called Bulldozer shrimp. The pair of clowns were very friendly right away and the coral beauty is still hiding. All the corals started opening up right away. I never got to see them because the light was out on nats tank. When I put everything in the tank this white stringy stuff was all over my tank. Should I worry about this?
