Question what is everyone’s thoughts on Atlas Scientific PH probes? And can you use them with an Apex?

Most/any work …. I’d avoid the off brands off of Amazon and you will find PinPoint brand probes work reliably but the cord is shorter than some…
just curious, how long is the cord?

Also how accurate are the Apex ph probes?
I've not used them personally, but I've seen mixed reviews on here.

Some seem to work flawless for their projected life while others are duds.

I use a GHL probe and it's been very accurate for nearly 2 years. I clean it and check accuracy every 2 weeks for bubbles and buildup of crud. The times I found it off the most were about 4 or 5 months into owning it when I didn't maintain it as I should and it had sponge growth or the glass was murky. I imagine this maintenance would help any of the higher end probes out there
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
