Im looking into ordering one of these soon along with a skimmer upgrade. I have a mixed reef and I'm just not really sure what resolution I need. I only have experience with the bigger phosphate checker from Hanna and I think that read in PPM. What is everyone using? Why? Is there a benefit to being able to read into the PPB?

Well the PPB is measuring just P, not PO4. You can convert the measurements easily.
I would get that one....
