I think it's the fan issues. The fan is not cheap, they are $18 each plus tax, plus shipping.
ATI store also sells for $14.95 with $9 shipping.
You sure you got the right power supply ?

The fan has it's own plug. So you should have 3 plugs (2 for the lights and 1 for the fan). You should put them in the same timer. So when the light is on, so do the fan.
Why does so many Red Sea tanks have split seams ? It's so scary to think about it. Damn....

Here is the link for replacement ballast...
This type of sumps leak a lot of the times. Usually near the window area. It sucks to hear that from you. You should contact John @ AA see if he can do something.
