Wow, it's almost overwhelming!

One thing, those nitrate probes aren't intended for continuous monitoring. Having said that, maybe keeping the probe wet will help it last longer. Who knows..

That's awesome you're adding wind turbines ... that's something I was wanting to look into one day. I'll be watching this one and learning !!

I've been reading more of that every day. I guess im one of the lucky ones. I've had that probe for over 2 1/2years, most of the time sitting in a cup of water in storage. I tried it out in a test sample and it was bang on.
Having said that, I think I will take the probe out of the tank when not in use and put it back in a container of fresh RO/DI water.


I've got sand, baffles, UV filter and the breeding tanks coming this week, I'll post some more pics this weekend.
