I measured my tank for stray voltage and I measured 67V, is that a problem?

Do you have AC pumps in the tank, or dc?


Most cheaper multimeters cheat to measure AC voltage - and can sometimes mistake dc voltage for the "average" of ac - and via a correction factor you end up with a reading that's about 20 times high.

I have AC Pumps, I never felt any electricity in the tank so I was a bit shocked by 67V

Just got my ICP. Doesn’t look bad.

I think I’m going to buy a grounding probe just to be sure. 0,045A !

just an update. Since I turned up the lighting, the corals are doing much better. only the parts that are in the shade are not doing well. they darken in color and then it dies at the bottom of the coral. So I think that 1 hydra gives too little light and therefore decided to replace it with a philips coral care gen2 that should give more than enough light.
