Pond Boss Forums GENERAL QUESTIONS Product sources Thermometer

Dave - I think I bought one of those items several years back. The temperature probe is not bad, but it should be checked against an accurate thermometer over a normal pond's, annual, temperature range that you see in your area.

The oxygen part of your "meter' is in my opinion "hooey" or foolishness. If yours is like mine it just takes the temperature of the water and ASSUMES! how much oxygen can under optimum conditions be dissolved into it. It does not actually analytically measure the oxygen concentration dissolved in the water. It just tells you how much can optimally be there for a given temperature (%saturation). In most instances, it is dead wrong compared to the real oxygen in milligrams per liter(ppm) dissolved in the water.
