Aquarium Light Timers & Power Strips
Power strips and aquarium timers are often critical components to a successful aquarium set up. Timers and power strips are available as individual items or combos. Aquarium timer and power strip combos offer you the added equipment protections along with the built-in timing control for such devices as aquarium lighting. When using a power strip, always look for one that allows the strip to be mounted. Power strips should be placed in an area that will prevent any accidental exposure to spills and splashing from your aquarium. Both power strips and aquarium timers should be plugged into a grounded three-prong GFCI controlled outlet for added safety

Hi, I have a marine fish tank with 4 fish, an anemone, and a couple of invertebrates. There's nothing wrong right now but I'm scared that I might have jeopardized the aquarium's safety during a maintenance routine. I was doing some aquascaping when I realized that I forgot to rinse my hand beforehand, which worries me because I had handled clorox wipes (benzyl ammonium chloride) roughly 30 minutes before touching the water. Are my fish going to be ok, and is there anything I can do right now?
