PROBES
Monitor Your Aquarium Health
Probe
Temperature
Keeping a stable and consistent temperature in the aquarium is paramount to the health of your inhabitants. Monitoring temperature and especially temperature changes throughout the day is mission critical.
Having a quality temperature monitoring solution that also alerts you to over or under temperature situations is a must for a successful aquarium.
Compatible with:
Any available temperature port on the following products: PM1, PM2, PM3, ASM & A1, A2, or A3 Apex Series
Included with Apex Jr, Apex, Apex Pro
Probe
pH
Keeping pH stable is critically important to healthy coral in a reef aquarium. A stable pH is also less stressful for all the aquarium’s inhabitants.
Monitoring pH not only allows you to tune in desirable parameter stability but also serves as an important warning system to warn you of negative chemistry changes.
Compatible with:
Any available BNC port on the following products: PM1 & A1, A2, or A3 Apex Series
Included with Apex Jr, Apex, Apex Pro
Probe
ORP
Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP) is the measurement of water cleanliness. ORP level indirectly indicates the ability of beneficial bacteria in the aquarium to reduce contaminants like nitrates, ammonia ECT. Ultimately it is in part a measure of the electrical charge available to break down these contaminants.
Sudden changes in ORP are often reflective of organically bad things happening the aquarium. If a fish passes or too much food is available, the change in ORP can prove to be a much needed signal to investigate or take action.
Compatible with:
Any available BNC port on the following products: PM1 & A1, A2, or A3 Apex Series
Included with Apex Pro
Probe
Salinity
Maintaining consistent salinity in your aquarium is key to the well being of every organism inside it. And, as busy as we sometimes are, we don’t even realize our parameters are out of whack until it’s too late.
The salinity probe will monitor your salinity in parts per thousand (ppt) and provide valuable feedback about your rate of evaporation and changes in the salt concentration in your water.
Compatible with:
Any available Salinity port on the following products: PM2, A2 or A3 Apex Series
Probe Accessory
Magnetic Probe Rack (MPR)
Our probe rack is constructed using an all acrylic frame that is weather and shatter resistant. Designed to hold our larger diameter temperature probe, pH probe, ORP probe, and salinity probe. All this brought together with a neodymium magnet, the most widely used rare-earth magnet that will hold on through 1/2″ thick sumps!
Strong, light weight, and designed with durability in mind there’s no doubt that this will make a fine addition to your Neptune Systems aquarium sump. If you’re looking for a quality Magnetic Probe Rack that won’t have you wondering whether it will accommodate every one of your your Neptune Systems probes, think no more. It’s time to put your mind at rest.
Compatible with:
Any material less than or equal to 1/2″.
Probe
Dissolved Oxygen (DO)
Oxidation Reduction Potential (ORP) is the measurement of water cleanliness. ORP level indirectly indicates the ability of beneficial bacteria in the aquarium to reduce contaminants like nitrates, ammonia ECT. Ultimately it is in part a measure of the electrical charge available to break down these contaminants.
Sudden changes in ORP are often reflective of organically bad things happening the aquarium. If a fish passes or too much food is available, the change in ORP can prove to be a much needed signal to investigate or take action.
Compatible with:
Any available Dissolved Oxygen port on the following products: PM3
