I’m fairly new back in the hobby. I bought a used RedSeaMax 250. I am not using the top of the unit as it produced way to much heat. I bought 2 used radion gen2 xr30’s. I have them dispensed from the ceiling and they are 9 in above the water. I bought a reef link reef to control the lights. I also built a screen top i bought from BRS. I was not pleased with the backfiltration so I added a sump. I am using both for filtration and to accommodate my probes and heater in the back unit. I have my protein skimmer in the sump. and i’m using. 4” sock. I’m running a 2k icecap hydro gyre with its own controller running at 65% flow. My ATO is Tunze controller and pump. I just installed Neptune Apex and I think I hooked it up correctly. I’m wondering why my ORP probe is reading 171 only. Any responses will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Reefers Jeff.
