Roy, shows he doesn't know everything, typed:

Unnecessary derogatory comments snipped
More salt is in order....BGotta build up the electrolytes sp a better
cpnductive path can be had and then possibly your GFCI (if you have
one) will "TRIP" if its a common type GFCI device if not and its an
oddball then it will FLIP.

Electrical devices will bleed off minute amounts of charge that won't flip
a GFCI. At least that is what this product takes care of:

Rid-Volt” Titanium Grounding Probe www.aquaticeco.com Part # TG10

****Description: Made of pure titanium, this specially designed probe
removes "stray voltage" generated by pumps, heaters, lights and other
electrical devices. A worthwhile safety device for live seafood tanks,
aquariums, hatcheries, garden ponds, etc. Noncorrosive titanium probe has
10' wire lead. Simply immerse probe in water and either plug into wall
receptacle or attach to grounding lug. Instructions included. End****

Most fish aren't bothered, but the ones that are, can be stressed and thus
act unusual (for Roy, oddball). Allowing fish to stay in this situation
most likely will lead to its demise over time, imho. ~ jan
