Woke up to a crazy electrical smell, no smoke, it's definitely the tank, seemed to be coming from power strip I shop vacced then shamwowed it, now have a big butt fan running on it. Problem, smell isn't stopping. Can't find a melted plug, nothing feels hot, still no smoke. Smell might be better but I think I am nose blind.
let's go through the list of what could be doing this:
Heaters- checked, none cracked, no electrical current in any tanks
Water dripped on the power supply- dried everything off, no signs of standing water or current drips
24 hour lighting - checked, more rust than I would like to see, no problems, smell not coming from those lights
I did a ton of maintenance yesterday and tried to switch half the tanks to solar but don't have the battery available to power 700- watts(lol plz don't tell my wife).
I haven't gone through and checked the low wattage DC stuff since I don't think they have the power to melt plastic like the smell indicates.
Only problem I noticed in the maintenance was a leaking filter that I just pulled off the tank rather than try to repair.
My clown tangs are total jerks who splash the lights and me multiples times a day and taught the damsels to do that now too, I am hoping that's what happened, a splash got away from them and landed/dripped onto surge protector.
Ideas?
