I just got zapped by my tank.......

[waverz]

I was wondering why my tank didnt look like it had much flow in it so i stuck my hand in and ZAAAAAP!! I got nailed bigtime. Apparently the no name pump i had in there for curculation decided to short out and i got to be the lucky ground. Damn that hurt.

I need those modded maxis bad now!

Like I always say. You have all the luck!

 

[waverz]

Yeah, looks like i should get a ground probe so i dont fry myself, they are only 10 bucks but would probably save your life....

You should have GFCI for the system.

 

[leeweber85]

think of what your poor fish were going through.

 

[svb57]

Think of a short circuit and house burning down!!

 

[waverz]

GFCI's wouldnt be a bad idea...

Ill have to add it to the "never ending list of things to get".

That's what homeowners insurance is for! Just think a new house AND a BIGGER TANK!

 

[jbrunken]

Wow, no way I'd run my tank on a non GFCI protected circuit...

You're risking your life man!

I run two circuits for my 125 set-up. Each are on a GFCI circuit breaker.

 

[musty baby]

heh heh. FIRE!

I'd put that one on the top of your list. Like the others said a fire could start or it could put you six feet under.
