I don't see anything funny about his fish dying. Push your cuticle on your finger nail back a little stick your finger in. Sorry for your loss.

I was saing haha because I do this frequently and have to electrocute my self on a daily basis I find that'd alitle humerus sorry and honestly I don't think that's the case unless it was a monster ballast even if it was for a kind time all it would really do is promote algae unless like said was very big wattage and not just a pump shortage or something like that sorry didn't mean to treat this as funny any other info on this situation tank etc I have some cinnamon clowns and baby ocelaris when you are ready and coral if that died also

check if your heater exploded

You can use a multi meter for volt meter. I would invest $10 in a grounding prob. This will ground and stay current in your tank.

I don't think its funny his fish die either. it's hard to believe what some people say on this site. The other day got a message telling me I shouldn't be in the fish keeping hobby because I thought that captive-bred fish will be beneficial to both the Hobby and environment.

That's what I meant but be careful the one I grabbed once was coper no good . And I never said it was funny that his stuff died don't twist my words I found it humorous how I know so much about this and get electrocuted constantly idk what you guys are talking about but the best thing I have for you after he tells us the other tank parameters in a month I'll have bigger clowns there pritty hardy and you won't mind keeping if they live hope all goes well

Buy a multi/volt meter as suggested. Pull each piece of equipment out of your tank and put in a bucket of water. Turn on each piece of equipment one at a time and test for voltage. Start with your heater since that is the most likely culprit. This way there is no need to electrocute yourself or worry about copper.
