REAL-TIME MONITORING OF DISSOLVED OXYGEN IS A GREAT SAFETY NET<\/h3>\n

Many marine aquarists only give the oxygen content in their aquarium water a passing thought, not fully understanding how the level of the Dissolved Oxygen (DO) in their tanks can affect their entire tank population. \u00a0In one way or another, everything (fish, invertebrates, corals, algaes, bacteria) in the oceans and in marine aquariums react with oxygen. Most of the living beings of this planet require oxygen in order to metabolize nutrients. Fish, invertebrates, corals, and bacteria ingest O2 and expel CO2 day and night.<\/p>\n

DISSOLVED OXYGEN PROBE SOLD SEPARATELY<\/h3>\n

While the cost of the Dissolved Oxygen Module \u2013 PM3 is very reasonable, the down side is that the DO probe itself is relatively expensive. The DO Probe certified and sold by Neptune Systems is a lab grade device and costs about 5x the cost of the PM3 module itself. That\u2019s the bad news. The good news is that the probe has replaceable membranes so you don\u2019t have to throw it away when it wears out like other probes. Instead, every three months you simply put a new membrane in the probe \u2013 at a cost of only $8.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
