Broken Heater

[Nemo]

Ok here is the update

The new heater is working just fine and is still in the bottom of the sump.

Most everything has recovered or is well on the way. I did end up killing 2 crabs, 2 snails, and my anthelia. My green hammer coral is still pinkish beige, but it is looking better.

I have added a grounding rod to the sump into the house ground so no electricity ends up in the tank.
I have put everything on GFI plugs so any sign of problems and it will trip the plug.
I have ordered a 3/4" check valve for the return so I have no water returning to the sump if I have a power failure.

This is over kill but I figure better safe than sorry, and these guys did not ask to be removed from the ocean so I figure I had better do everything I can to make my tank as comfortable as possible for them.
