Should I put a GFCI on my 70 watt MH?

You should have a GFI on every device that's attached to or near your tank.

WhiteMike, what are you trying to accomplish by putting the MH on the GFCI circuit?

 

[whitemike]

Safety I guess.

 

[acrylic51]

Always a good reason......

 

[whitemike]

Well I put one on.

If you can find the thread in here from the guy whose lighting system fell into his tank, you'd definitely understand why it's necessary.
Freshwater... not so much as freshwater is not nearly that good of a conductor.
Saltwater on the other hand... :thinking:

What kind of lighting SCSInet fell in??? I didn't see that thread.....

Don't remember.... it was a few months ago. I can't find it either. Maybe it wasn't on this board.
