Hey Everyone,
Just curious as I browse looking for GFCI. Ive been researching and finding out that the biggest issue with these that they are sometimes too sensitive, which makes me fear that one night just when I go to bed it will shut down the entire power supply...than 8 hours later I wake up to floating fish. Im not too familiar with GFCI but Im pretty sure its job is to sense a stray voltage than shut down the power supply. Anyone have any input, or experience with these as I never used it and now with the larger tank I plan on trying too.
Also would a grounding probe still be needed or the GFCI is all that one would need?
OR
Should I just change the outlet entirely and get outlets that are GFCI?

Also any other precaution equipment that hold be bought for a tank set up?
