I was draining my tank and went to move the light and electrocuted myself.
Sheesh.. scary..hurt a bit.. a little disorienting but I think i'm ok lol.
Duh step in water ....sigh.. I'm a little mad at myself right now. Head hurts a bit = p
Lesson learned that's for sure !

well its good you are ok. safety first!!!

yeh for sure... Scared myself pretty good. I felt it go all the up my arm and past my shoulder. I didn't know what it was at first it felt like the the light was vibrating really fast. Weird. heh
Reminded me of when I was a kid and got shocked by an electric fence =p

Wow that must have been frightning! Very glad to hear you are ok!

Chris

took me a long time to not use a sheet of styrofoam to step on while working on my tank after I got zapped..I don't remember what it was..I think a leaky mag drive. anyhoo, live'n learn! glad you're alright

I've poisoned myself from fragging, but never had the pleasure of electrocution :redface:

Glad you're okay :smile:

Grounding probe time maybe? And GFI outlets?

It took me electrocuting myself a couple times to get this equipment too.

I've dropped a 2x65w PC fixture right into the tank. And.. yup, went and grabbed it out. Was pretty painful.. my fingers/hands were like superglued to the fixture once I touched it. It sucked! Lesson learned definately. Don't use fixtures like that :razz: (j/k)

I remember that, pretty funny in a scarey way. I too have shocked myself with the balast from my 250 watt MH. Ouch! my arm hurt for a day or two.

:lol: hahah, Danny had front row seats to my electrocution. It's okay Danny, it is funny.. laugh it up. lol :wink:
