I am setting up a Calcium Reactor and in the market for a new pH probe, the question is does the brand matter? Their are some on e-bay cheap, less than $20.00, but then the Neptune Systems probes are close to $50.00 and I need 2 of them, one for the Calcium reactor and one for the tank itself.
Any input would be greatly appreciated, by the way I will be using a Pinpoint pH Controller.

forget about ebay... HM digital handheld PH tester is unreal.. sooo easy and the quality is extremely high.

BRS sells one for I think $25 or so if I remember correctly, and I would trust them over some random ebay dealer.
Also, BWI, i don't think that a handheld tester would be applicable here, since they need BNC type connectors to hook it up to their pH Controller.

E*bay probes are good, just make sure you get the connector (probably BNC) and the cable length you need.
As ReefWreak said, BRS has them for $29.99 + shipping (less if you buy more than one) and you know you are getting good quality.
