Luckily I was working on my skimmer when I hear a buzzing. Almost sounded like a bee under my stand. Then I hear that awful electricity sound and smell smoke. I pulled out the power supply and right as I did it caught fire right on the floor. I pulled the wire out of the powe supply brick and blew out the fire. At that point the power strip finally tripped and cut off power too. Now I’m hopped up on adrenaline and so nervous about the tank I can’t sleep.
What would have caused this? I had a 6 outlet power strip with two small power heads, a 200 watt heater, my skimmer, the return pump, and a small LED light for when I’m under the tank. The power heads are just cheap no name amazon ones.
