ORP Question

[Fasthackem]

Greetings.

I'm running a normal average Ph of 8.3, but I'm running an ORP of 470 and the only way i can get it down is to add reef snow or organics. Am I missing something? Should there be something else I need to be doing?
Tank is really thriving at this point.

Thank you in advance for your thoughts.

I got also ORP, but i stop monitor, the more i dig (read) the more confuse i got.

That's kinda where I'm at too.
Thanks for the reply.

From what I know this is more geared to people running ozone. Are you? Otherwise i would just use it as a metric of how your tank is running and use it as a tool to see if anything drastic changes..

Mine fluctuate between 450 and 470. Don't chase ORP, its cool to measure and track. Otherwise I ignore it.
