Re: uS/mS difference?
As far as a formula to convert from conductivity (mS or uS), I don't know
of any simple one... Siemens are the base unit of conductivity. In the
case of water, conductivity is a measure of total dissolved salts (TDS),
which is directly related to hardness (the higher your TDS, the higher the
hardness). mS is milli-Siemens and uS is micro-Siemens. There are 1000 uS
in one mS. 0.00 to 4.00 mS (0 to 4000 uS in with 10uS accuracy) should be
quite sufficient for fish keeping.
Hope this helps,
