I read this before and I strongly disagree.

Disagree all you want, but the paper is correct. The findings were
based on scientific procedures and principles.

This one, in oposite, is very good and convincing.

It is convincing, but incorrect. The author did not do any
research to arrive at their conclusions.


If you have defective aquarium appliances that are creating a current path in your
aquarium by using the salt water as a conductive medium, then the solution is to repair
the appliances or replace them... not divert a portion of the current into a "grounding probe"."

The grounding probe will cause the GFCI or circuit breaker to trip
alerting you to the possibility of defective equipment.

There will be currents flowing in an aquarium with or without the
grounding probe. This is the nature of AC.
