Last time I checked PH was when I started up my big tank a year or so ago

Problem with that is that unless you perform maintenance and calibration regularly, it's not accurate. Best that you don't pay attention to it

I've never even worried about it with my reactor.

Chasing pH is a dangerous game.

If you have aragonite based substrate, live rock, and use good buffers then there is no reason in my opinion.

It is important when using Kalk or a Calcium reactor but that is about it.

If you are using 2 part you just need to check your salinity...
