Anyone in the Rockland area have an ORP meter?

I am trying to find out reason why my tank is doind so so poorly.

Spoke to someone and they said to try that.

I dont know.

Anyone want to come and fix my tank?

The ORP level isn't really going to change unless you run Ozone. What are you currently testing with? I have a hydrometer and some salifert kits. I can run over if need be. I'm in thiells.

Ack, that should have read refractometer.

Joe is correct. Conductivity measured by ORP is a reflection of organics in water. If you're not running ozone you're at little risk of it being high. And if it's low <300 you should be doing water changes and increasing skimming IMO.
What's wrong with the tank?
