Salt may be a good idea as well.
Good idea, would 1tbs per 5gal be good? I thought sunfish were slightly sensitive to salinity but I guess not.

I have my fish in the basement where its pitch black. I ease them into the light everyday by turning on the room lights about 30 min before turning on the tank lights. You could try that.

They're handling this light better than the last one but they are sticking to the darker side of the tank and those that do wander into the light stay there for only seconds before darting under the driftwood or back to the dark.

This may not be what you would prefer in a tank, but it is fairly normal and natural behavior. Have to hide from those kingfisher's.

I think Matt may be onto something with stray voltage. The filter could be the culprit.

Cut your hand and stick it in there.
That cracks me up... but I have to agree with it... although not safe... I have had it happen to me on a few occasions... any chipped knuckle from working in the basement will certainly let you know if you have any current leakage.
