pH Meter

[humu]

So, I don't have pH probe for my Reefkeeper. Any recommendations for a good and cheap pH Meter?

I was looking at this...

I wouldn't even bother really. Have never used one so not sure on what is best.
Maintain a good alk and run a skimmer and ph shouldn't really ever be a problem

agreed with mike!

Thanks! Yeah, never used one in my 15 years of reefing, but lately, I've been considering one to monitor Kalk Reactor effluent (for Kalk depletion) and maybe just in case, to spot check...

I have a spare pH meter you can have but needs a probe.

Thanks for the offer. Really cool of u. Actually ended up picking up a used reef keeper module with probe for $40 hopefully works ok.

Remember to calibrate the probe every now and then, especially if you are controlling other equipment based on the probe reading.

The probe on my apex was off by .1

Was reading 8.0 instead of 8.1

I imagine the longer you wait between calibration, the farther off the reading is.

And the frequency between calibration can very on a Standard probe vs a Lab grade probe...
