HELP

[yourockit]

I think i got water in my electrical plug stip and burned out my fluval filters. What shoudl I do? i think i am totally ****ed and going to get rid of my fishes. i feel horrible.

water on the plug shouldn't burn up the filter, just the plug. Feel lucky you didn't burn your house down.

how do i fix it? please! my fishes have no filtration.

OOOOHHHH. I think that electricity and water don't mix. Try a new power strip, and for God's sake, be careful.

Go check the fuse box...QUICKLY.....

 

[rjmtx]

dry out the strip or put another one on. If that doesn't work, check the breakers. You didn't burn your filters up.

 

[yourockit]

the fuse box is fine. there is power coming through the electrical outlet on the wall. the power strip is gone. my filters don't turn on.

 

[rallysman]

plug the filter into the wall.

 

[yourockit]

update. one filter turns on and the other does not.

Try banging them while they are plugged in. Sometimes dirty impellers will not start right away...
