this morning i was messing around with the sump and I fielt a little shock frm the water.this bothers me a lot.what is the best way to trouble shoot this ,unplug one thing at a time and test the water with a meter?Im not an electrician but do they make a meter for water?has anyone else gone threw this before?If so what did you do?

Yep....one thing at a time is the best way....the heater is usually a good culprit for this issue....

Someone on MFK ran into a similar problem. There CK was afraid of the power head and they later found out it was leaking current and the CKs electrical field picked it up.
