I have four circuits, each on a GFCI...and they have never tripped once. They are trying to tell you something. I don't think that is normal.

I like #1, with #4 being a close 2nd choice. Make one of the humps in design #1 smaller than the other so it doesn't look so symmetrical. Plan ahead for corals that are 12" tall.
