does you lght fixture have a protective glass piece. I know of one case when the moisture was getting in to the ballast. But not confirmed... good luck!

So the tank is 30" tall? What a funky dimension. The tank is still too small the tig, even as a grow out. What other fish in other bigger tanks is irrelevant.
Just curious, do the light and the pump both have a third ground plug? If so i wonder if the problem is a faulty pump in addition to a ground loop? Do you have one of those adapters that takes a 3 prong plug and converts it to a normal 2 prong one, if so try using it on either the pump or the light. If you have an isolated circuit close to the tank you could try plugging one of the devices into it also.
I had a similar issue a few years ago with a really old pump that came free with a used sump i bought, i found out quickly why it was free

Yep, everything is fine, thanks for checking!davo;1415879; said:
Yea, it's way too small for a fish that sits in one spot all day. I didn't ask for stocking advice, but thanks anyway. FWIW this fish eats more and has grown more in this unsuitable 110 than it did in the 300 that I pulled it from a couple of months ago.Scorponok;1415895; said:

The pump is 2 prong, but the light is grounded. I'll get an isolation xformer and see what I can figure out.
They are very active at night if you know your tig. but you're not asked for catfish advice. As far as stocking advice it's only an ethical thing to point out that your tig can't turn around properly in its tank, whether it's eating more or less in another tank.
Lastly, if you are concerned with sufficient filteration perhaps the real problem is adequate water volumn.
