Not quite related to the house wiring, but I've seen some people using your Home depot special extension cords to bring power over to their aquarium, while an extension cord in general isn't a bad thing, using those cheap 18 gauge lamp cords is a major cause for concern. You can't pull a lot of juice through these cords without some major heat buildup in the wire.
