How can I get my ORP in the range

[Mikenov44]

I am having trouble with my reef tank, the meter is displaying 154 ORP and my main goal is to aim for 350 range. I read about hydrogen peroxide that it has the ability to raise the ORP BUT use with caution.

Can anyone help me with this problem?

I have a 85 gallon plus sump system with two mp40, sss1000 skimmer to led light "tuna blue", 50 lbs of sand 75 lbs of rock.

pH is 8.1

Live stock:
trigger
two tangs
two clowns
two desiels

Any help would be great.

first of all whats wrong with your tank? why u have to mess with orp?
imo orp is just an arbitrary number, if theres nothing majorly wrong with your tank. dont mess with it

Most people don't worry about ORP unless they are running ozone.

 

[Mikenov44]

But orp show inorganices and air level for fish and coral. I think went water is more oxide less alge would grow.

do u have alge problem? if you do try reduce nutrient in your tank. by means of biopellets gfo. or invest in a ozone generator if you want to mess with orp
