You need to add a line of code to each output that you want to turn off:
If LeakSensorName CLOSED Then OFF
Each of these outputs needs to be set to the “Advanced” Control Type. If you’re not familiar with this, see my tutorial on Apex Control Types here:

When I wrote my 8-part Apex Programming Tutorial series, all of the coding examples were applied to outputs where the Control Type was set to Advanced. Control Types are pre-set shortcuts to program an output for a specific device, allowing less...

is there a way to shut down the actual power bar?

The only way to do that would be to have the EnergyBar plugged into some other controllable outlet, and if you wanted the Apex to control that outlet as well, it would need to be another EnergyBar, so it's not a very good solution.
You may be able to find some other sort of 3rd-party water leak sensor-controlled outlet. Keep in mind, if you power off the EnergyBar and there's no other source of power for your Apex, the Apex itself will also go offline and you'd have no way to monitor or control other Apex devices on your aquarium, such as powerheads for water movement.
