NOTICE REGARDING THE HUNG VUONG ANCESTOR COMMEMORATION DAY HOLIDAY & APRIL 30TH - MAY 1ST HOLIDAY

A guide to accurately converting RPM to RCF. Learn the difference between RPM and RCF, the calculation formulas, practical examples, and why you shouldn't rely solely on RPM when using a centrifuge

What is the ideal TDS level for a shrimp tank? Many people spend a lot of time monitoring pH, temperature, and filtration systems but overlook TDS. Only when shrimp grow slowly, their colors fade, they have difficulty molting, or die off sporadically do they start checking their water source and discover that this indicator has long been out of the right range

TDS meters can operate reliably for many years, but the electrodes are the most subject to wear and tear. Each time a measurement is taken, the sensor surface comes into direct contact with water, dissolved minerals, and various other chemical components. This continuous process means the electrode's responsiveness gradually decreases over time.

What TDS level is considered safe to drink? Does a low TDS reading mean cleaner water? Learn how to read TDS results, common misconceptions, and how to assess water quality more accurately

Metal detectors operate on the principle of passive electromagnetic induction and can only detect isolated metal objects such as gold, copper, and iron. These devices cannot trace utility paths because they cannot differentiate the direction or depth of long, buried continuous pipes. For insulated electrical cables or plastic pipes, metal detectors are completely ineffective as there is no AC current to generate a magnetic field. Furthermore, the detection depth of standard consumer metal detectors is typically limited to 1 - 2 meters for small objects, whereas underground utility lines are often buried 3 - 5 meters deep or even more.
