Do not get rid of the ground probe. It could save your life.
All sal****er tanks should have a ground probe.

GFCI saves life... Grounding probe is designed just to keep
your fish from getting sick from stray voltages - but I guess
it is only a marketing thing rather than a real deal... because
the real thing is that grounding probe is making things worse
for your fish. It creates stray currents which are far worse
than stray voltages for a living things. But this is only IMHO.
I would be happy to hear from you about grounding probe saving
lives... please explain how does it do it?
