stray voltage

[zack879]

Hey so for my wave maker, heater skimmer, uv steralizer and filter i'm just using a regular surge protector. is that enough to eliminate stray voltage? or is there a better surge protector out there that will eliminate that stuff? or will it even matter?

There's actually a grounding probe you put in your tank and then attach to an outside ground.

just another thing to have to put into the tank ha, Ill look into it however

If you put the grounding probe in the sump, will it protect the DT? And vice versa?

No, chances are not at all times.

Grounding probe, one of the few cheap items you can get for this hobby. Unfortunately it does take up a socket and preferrably one directly in the wall outlet.

As big a sacrifice as this is.. .. it's well worth it... stray voltage is the least of your worries.. wait until a decent sized heater gives you the finger... whew..
