Are you using a salinity probe? If so how do you like it? Is it accurate? Are they easy to calibrate? I want all the low down on your salinity probe experiences both good and bad. I really wanna get one for my Reef keeper. Thanks for your .02
 
I think the salinity probes had to be redesigned due to not functioning properly. IDK if they were ever fixed or not.
 
I use a salinity probe, well it's called the Conductivity probe for the Apex.

Readings are accurate, did take a while to calibrate, well worth it.

I wouldn't use it during water changes as it may degrade the probe's performance. It's not cheap!

I use a refractometer here and there to confirm the results. Well worth it on the Apex IMHO
 
No I do not but interested to see who does.
