Yes. Most recently at the accountant's office a couple weeks ago. And yes, it hurt.
Here's the info,
Aquapod Recall (http://archive.reefcentral.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=749517&highlight=aquapod)
Check the link in the nano forum to determine if your Aquapod is defective and how to fix it if you're so inclined.

I got shocked from my prop tanks a few weeks ago. I hate to admit it but it was my own fault. When buying a timer for the lights I had a brain fart and grabbed the normal one WITHOUT a ground. Got home and was too lasy to go back and get the correct one. SO I had the bright idea that I would cut the ground off the power strip and fix it later. Well later came sooner than I wanted. Salt creep must have carried current from the lamps to the water. So when I stuck my whole arm in it felt a little funny. Then when I tested the water with my little finger all of these not so nice words just flew from my mouth.:eek:
If anyone at work learned about this they would stone me.
Lesson learned.
