Unless you’re dosing ozone, zero reason to monitor it. The only reason to monitor it with ozone is so you don’t overdose

I came to say this very thing. very important when using Ozone.

I have yet to set mine up need to update the apex and get the new probe going.

some say it also can tell you if you have a dead fish.
