Hi People,

I have a Milwaukee ORP contiuous meter that is linked to my Ozoniser. Right now my readings are 427 mv. The Ozone cuts off at 370 mv. Two questions.

1) why is it climbing higher?. My tank is about 4 months old. 680 litres five footer - reef tank with 8 inhabitants (tangs, etc)

2) Is high OMV good or bad? what is causing this spike? I have a continuos calcium reactor. KH is high. CA is ok. NO3 abt 5-10 ppm.

Thanks for anyhelp you can provide.

Kamal,

Thou of sharing some experience w u. I have the same issue, however, i m using pH203-ORP controller (Aquamedic OEM).

From my limited understand, I think this is wat happened:

1. The orp probe needs frequent cleaning. Once a month soak in NTUC white vinegar for 30-60mins. Brush the probe tip gentle to remove detrius. (When was the last time u clean yr probe?)

2. Probe may need calibration.

After u do the above 2 step, I believe yr ORP will drop again.
