My first Fish copper Qt treatment

Having said that. If you didn’t have a low enough gfci or a ground to the breaker box. The short would have been complete. So when you touched the water or metal on the aquarium. It would shock you. Especially if you didn’t have shoes on. Like 10-15 years ago. There’s a guy that died from this. He had a heart condition and there was a short in his sump. His wife found him. He had passes away with his hand in the sump.

This is what scares me about stuff like this, it kills people. We're basically putting toasters in bathtubs and relying on the manufacturers to protect us with enough insulation around the toaster. We've put too much faith in certain companies like hygger that are putting people at serious risk.

I'll be installing gfi outlets for the tanks.

The only issue is the 210gallon tank.

I can't swap that outlet without completing draining and moving the tank from the wall.
Nothing I'm currently willing to do or have the bandwidth to carry out.

Yet all the other tank outlets are in decent reach.

That outlet is behind the tank almost dead centered.

They won't be grounded. Yet from vidoes and articles I read it should still trip the gfic on the outlet if it dectets current. Offering some level of protection. I'm supposed to label the outlets as no equipment ground.
