Piece of cheap glass heater, and yes it broke. I have replaced it with one that won't! The heater was one that we had laying around for a while from another tank - just goes to show that a little investment up front can go a long way!

What kind of heater? Did it break?
I use stealth heaters that are made out of rubber/plastic

That is good news. I'd say you've got it made now.

Some good news. . . acans are tougher than I would have thought. They survived the voltage. Also, it looks like a couple of zoas/palys might pull through.

Fish are still hanging in there as well.

I am soooooo glad I had just started stocking this tank. Could have been much worse.

Woo Hoo

Escargo sounds good. I hope the rest survive.

Science experiment of the day. . .

Snails do NOT survive electrical current from a broken heater in a 12g nano. . .

Mushrooms, purple and watermelon, toast quickly in the electrical current . . .

Small clownfish and dwarf hawkfish seem annoyed by electrical current. . . (still alive and well so far. . . may have brain damage

)

Various zoas/palys, closed and relocated to 90g. to see if they are dead or just trying to fool the electrical current into thinking they are. . .

Acans are a crap shoot. . . relocated to the 90g. to see what happens. . .

New heater in tank, escargo for dinner?

Kids, do NOT try this at home. . . .
