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.
