i have a submersible pump and light in my tank with electrical wires in the water. is that ok? i assumed it would be because why else would they make it a submersible pump if the wires cant get wet. and aslo, do you think the fish will leave the wire alone and not bite it?? :dunno:
 
If they are fully submersible, then you will be fine. Most fish probably will leave the wires alone. Unless they look or smell like something interesting to the fish they will likely ignore them alltogether.

I've never heard of submersible pumps or lights, but submersible heaters are common. My fish don't nibble on them (except for the ottos and they're just nibbling at the algae).
 
can i not attach pictures in this forum? i know i can do it in members aquarium pictures but i dont know how to do it here. i was going to show it to you heresmike.
