Hey Guys
This morning when I fed my Nennie, I felt my water shocking me at the surface. At shocked myself untill my finger went numb just to make sure this is really happening. Basic physics says that if you are barefoot, you are earthed - thus with shoes there is no effect.
I then phoned my dad as he is a electrical expert, and he says that his tank does the same. He asked me if I have a cut on the hand that I used - which I had. He then said that when he puts his other (none cut hand) in the tank - nothing... So I tried again, and still got a shocking experience.
There are only two things electrical in my tank; two powerheads. Immediately after swithing them off, the shock stays, but if I wait a few moments the shock is gone. I then tried to determine which of the two it was.
It seems to be my Seio 820 (dad also has the exact same one?!?!?!?) I know that it has a magnet on the inside that spins. Can this be the cause?
My lifestock all seems 110% fine... Luckily. I am just a bit scared, as this is not really normal. And what if the tank earths on some whay... then bzzzzzzz... and gone are my lifestock.
Please help.
