A healthy aquarium doesn`t just create itself. You, as the owner, have to do the necessary steps to achieve the ideal living conditions for your pet fish, corals and plants. After that, you are also tasked to maintain those ideal living conditions so that the aquarium could sustain aquatic life over a long period of time.
One of the things you have to maintain in your aquarium is the ionic content of the water in the tank. The presence of too many ions in the water means there`s a build-up of waste, which means it`s time for a water change or time for a water treatment. Either way, testing the presence of ions in the water is an important part of aquarium maintenance and it can be done using a probe such as the Neptune Lab Grade Conductivity Probe from
Pet Store.
The more ions are in an aqueous solution, the higher is its conductivity. Because the Neptune Lab Grade Conductivity Probe tests for conductivity, it is used to effectively measure the ionic content of
aquarium water. This probe comes with a 10-inch cable, so it can be flexibly moved around while being used. It also has a 4-pin mini-DIN connector which makes it usable with standard outlets.

0 to 999 us/cm or
0 to 99.9 ms/cm - Lab quality probe w/10` cable
