Crzej1 has been hating on my brand new amazing addition via texts because he tried using one once, and despite the tritons best efforts, he couldn’t keep blue clove polyps alive. True story.
Mines pretty smoothly ramping up today. At 8.52 at the moment. I was a little worried that might be too high, but I went and read the Randy Holmes Farley article on high ph. In it he says his tank at the time ran 8.3-8.5 no problem. Now, I need to set up the trident. Let’s see how that goes. I have no idea where I’m going o put this stuff in my fish room. It’s too dang crowded!
Yeah that’s a fair point. The Milwaukee uses a 4 and 7 ph calibration. Not sure how that translates to something out of that range. However, it’s strange that the Milwaukee and salifert pretty much matched while the apex was WAY higher. I saved the calibration fluid for the apex and tested the probe against them. Both were .6 high, but the solutions weren’t sealed and I didn’t rinse with RO in between yesterday, so some cross contamination could have happened. I don’t know. I’ll order more apex calibration and see how that does.Wow, but you already re calibrated the unit and its still off? You calrx ph probe was probably also calibrated with the lower solution
Not sure how you’d do that without another ph tester. I’ll order in some more apex calibration fluid and try it again.Test the calibration solution?
Yeah I’ll get some more calibration fluid and try out @TriggerFan tip.I had issue with the ph probe on my Apex, it was always reading low.
