- I recently measured the voltage in my fish
- tank by placing the positive terminal of my
- voltmeter in the water and grounding the other
- terminal. I measured a whopping 50 volts. When I
- lift the power cords off the back of the tank the
- voltage drops down to a nice 1-2 volts.
-
- Has anybody heard anything on this subject or know
- where I might find some good reading material on it?
-
- Thanks.
