Hello all,
Yesterday I got a UV sterlilizer for my tank (as I am fighting some algae) and upon installing it and turning it on, my ORP readings started dropping.
Below is are 3 screenshots from my APEX (first one showing last few days and second a zoomed in for the last 24 hrs, while the 3rd one is just an overlay with my PH readings as I was curious if PH was acting abnormal, but it doesn't seem so).
The decrease coincides with the time I switched on the UV sterilizer (around 5: 45PM). It looks like it plateaus around 270 range, but I was wondering if the decrease in ORP is a good sign or a bad sign, as far as algaes (dinos) go.
As always, thank you!
