The tank of doom... help me!
Is it a vortech? If so, take the wet side apart and check the magnet casing. They have been known to come apart at the seams, like the picture below. I've seen more than one instance of this taking out multiple corals...
For stray voltage, you can use a voltmeter or multimeter. Walmart has them for around $15 I believe. To correct it, you'd want to run a grounding probe and replace whatever equipment is causing it. It's pretty cheap to ground your tank, and isn't a bad idea in any case.

Checked everything that's in water, swapped the heater out for my spare one, only thing with a magnet is the powerhead, but looked ok... any way to test the stray voltage?
