| Water Quality • Re: conductivity tests |
I think Orp is diferent from conductivity tests, but they use the same theory.? i could be completely wrong, just the paperwork mentioned conductivity and that was about it, and from what i make of it is what i wrote pevious (more for me to be corrected than anything)..  maybe when it comes to the diploma course it will be in their, 1 down 3 to go until the diploma course though..  - Posted by Stresseddad — Yesterday, 10:53 pm |

| Stuff and Nonsense • Re: Uploading to Photobucket |
|
I use an addon for my browser (Firefox) called "NoScript" which blocks scripts on sites unless I allow them. That button doesn't appear until I allow photobucket.com and pbsrc.com so maybe something in your browser is blocking one or both of them. - Posted by Old Dragon — Yesterday, 10:32 pm |

| Water Quality • Re: conductivity tests |
|
yes, it measures salt levels, first post if high conductivity then their high levels of foreign bodies in water for example salt or/and chemical (treatments) and supposedly ammonia/nirates? so lower conductivity means less additives in the water. That's what i make of it so far, but probably wrong.. - Posted by Stresseddad — Yesterday, 10:03 pm |
