    /me is scared to go count up the power cord total on my fish tank..

    We are brought up being told electricity and water don't mix, never have them close to each other ....

    Then we get a fish tank be it Fresh or Salt and well the story changes in a complete 180 and we add cord after cord after cord.. LOL..
