Aqua Medic Aquarium Electrode Probe Holder - Adjustable Mount - Marine & Fresh
The Aqua Medic Electrode Holder provides a simple and practical solution for securely positioning ...The Aqua Medic Electrode Holder provides a simple and practical solution for securely positioning electrodes inside freshwater and saltwater aquariums. Designed for use with up to two or four electrodes, it allows probes to be mounted neatly and safely without interfering with the aquarium layout.
The holder attaches easily to the aquarium and offers fully adjustable submergence depth, ensuring each electrode can be positioned at the correct water level for accurate readings. This makes it suitable for use with a range of monitoring probes, such as pH, redox or conductivity electrodes.
Its compact and functional design helps keep electrodes organised while allowing easy access for maintenance and calibration. The adjustable construction ensures reliable probe placement in both sump and display aquarium setups.
The Aqua Medic Electrode Holder is designed for aquarium hobbyists, providing a secure and organized way to mount pH, redox, or conductivity probes in both freshwater and saltwater tanks. Its key benefit is neat, adjustable probe placement for accurate readings without disrupting the aquarium's aesthetic. A potential caveat is its capacity, typically holding two to four electrodes, which may be limiting for complex setups. This holder simplifies electrode management, keeping them accessible for maintenance while ensuring correct submersion depth.

Can I use this holder in both freshwater and saltwater aquariums?
Yes, the holder is suitable for use in both freshwater and saltwater aquarium environments.
How do I adjust the depth of the electrodes?
The holder features fully adjustable submergence depth. You can slide the electrode holders up or down to position the probes at your desired water level.
Where is the best place to mount the electrode holder?
It can be mounted on the rim of your display aquarium or within your sump. Choose a location that provides consistent water flow to the electrodes and easy access for maintenance.
What types of electrodes can I use with this holder?
This holder is designed for standard aquarium monitoring probes, such as pH, redox, or conductivity electrodes.
Is any assembly required?
The holder typically comes pre-assembled or requires minimal assembly. Simply attach it to the aquarium rim and insert your electrodes.
How should I clean the electrode holder?
Wipe the holder down with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning materials.
Troubleshooting
Holder is not staying securely on the aquarium rim.
Ensure the rim is clean and dry. Adjust the angle of attachment or consider if the rim thickness is compatible with the holder's design.
Electrodes are not positioned correctly.
Re-adjust the submergence depth by sliding the electrode holders. Ensure the holder is mounted at the appropriate height on the aquarium.
Holder feels flimsy or unstable.
Check that all components are properly assembled and that the electrodes are inserted firmly into their slots. Ensure the holder is not overloaded beyond its intended capacity.
