    GREAT points Alton - I knew we had discussed this a few years ago, which is when I found my problem. ON my 215, I have 3 1250gph external pumps, 2 large Quiet One pumps and 2 Seio 2600s. That was enough to get a tingle.

    BUT, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A GOOD GROUNDING ROD on your home. Especially with very dry weather.

I'm sorry if this is the case but I did not intentionally sell you a bad pump. I would've just scraped it for parts if that was the case.
    I know that you didn't sell me a intentionally bad pump. In fact I was happy cause I found what kind of hp I need for my tank. It has such great power as far as flow is concern. I think it just out lasted it life span if it is what I was told. I'm still using it with more caution. Eventually I will upgrade. However I must make due with what I have. And try not create to much conduction, it lessen the shock. lol

    These posts just reminded how important to plug my grounding probe back in the sump vs. letting it collect dust on my table.
