hate to answer with another question, but what did you measure the 2 volts with?
if it's about a heater, are you measuring on AC with an accurate RMS meter?
And from where to where?
It's possible for an analog meter to totally miss peak voltage on leakage.
The other part of electricity is current - enough available current can kill at
a low voltage.
If you suspect the fish are getting a "tickle", what happens if you unplug the
suspected device for a short period?
I saw a post recently where someone saw moisture inside of a heater, thats
a good reason for replacement ASAP in my book.
