I think we all are already doing it with the voltage running through our tanks.

There was an article about this out a while ago. There is some proof out there that a low voltage current passed through a steel structure with frags attached will grow the frags at an accelerated rate. I will see if I can find the link again.

I think that's cool. Would make a cool project for someone to try to do on their own in a tank.
If it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all.

I read about it a long time ago. It's like electroplating. It supposedly attract the calcium ions and stuff

Electrical Engineers do it on impulse, with faster rise times, with more power, and less resistance at higher frequencies, without shorts, until it Hertz
