I use the Reefkeeper 2 for everything including ph monitoring. It is very accurate and easy to use. it also controls my aquarium.

I strongly recommend pH meters over kits. There are many suitable models, both handheld and desktop types, but make sure it has two point calibration and that you get good quality calibration fluids.

I've used American Marine and Milwaukee pH meters. I prefer the Pinpoint by American Marine.
