PH reading

[Sharkie06]

what should the PH in my calcium reactor read when i have my probe in there?

I think it depends on what media you use.. Check the dkh of your effluent.. I was told that it shou ld be in teh high 30's to low 40's then adjust the ph from there....

my reading on my monitor show 6.4 on a korallin reactor with arm media is that right

I think 6.4 is going to be a little low.. IF you go too low with ARM it kinda gets mushy.. What is the dkh of your effluent? Try starting around 6.7 or so...
