    I support what you do... Good luck, I hope you reach your goal! I was guided here by a link that was posted on the chat column of Colin Foord's Coral City Camera project - so that worked!

    Dear Johnny. We are using Atlas Scientific OEM electronics and probes for ORP, pH, salinity, and DO. We have a few candidates for pressure and temperature. We will be posting some lab notes this week!
