    Changing PH to DkH

    Is there a way to get the PH probe to read DkH?

    No. pH and KH are not interchangeable. KH is a measure of carbonate hardness to more generally the buffering capacity and pH is a measure of acidity. You are confusing alkaline (which is often used as a synonym for basic) with alkalinity.

    Thank you. Would there be a way to read DkH in the future through a probe?

    Not through a probe. Neptune is releasing the Trident soon, which is basically an automated test kit.
