Freshwater tank also okay too and fyi, all swimming pools are "ozone" treated too.

So your water is super "clear" now

Valuable findings from Bros Wlchew and Tineng ..
No lah..Since I am also user of PH-203 & Milwaukee, thought of maybe should share and keep everyone "An-Xin" .

So far, the reading is very stable. Will go around to find for a better (Pinpoint??) or replacement Milwaukee probe..haa..

Verdict: Overall, I am happy with what I get. I use it as PH Monitor and ORP Controller in one..(It would have cost me $500-$600 to come to this point) with similar form factor.

My recommendation: if the PARF value is under $150, I give a STRONG BUY!!!
even I have to buy another better probe[is it necessary?? ] (which may cost me another $150, Sound like SGX) ..So, WHEN IS MY SECOND UNIT COMING??!!

Be aware that the readings differ from one tank to another tank depending on the water conditions.

Dear all , just a note , have been advised best to soak the probe in distilled water overnight prior to using it for best result , to those who haven't open their probe yet one..

One hour can already if the probe is "dried - up" but since the probe is "filled" with solution then it is not necessary to do so.
