Inject ozone into your tank. If your taking ORP reading I am betting that you are already doing so. If you have been injecting ORP then chances are you cant raise it anymore unless you go overkill on an ozone injector.

Typically people have different ORP levels across the globe ranging from 280-420. Typically upon injecting ORP into there tank it will raise this ORP lvl 15-50 thus clarifying your water a bit.

Hope this helps.

You do not need 400.

Everything you ever wanted to know about ozone

It's just a number....don't worry about it....seriously:)

LOOK at your tank inhabitants, do they look OK, if so, you are all good.
