I would say any refractometer is better then any swing arm go ahead and get it looks good.

You need to be careful on what you get on ebay. I bought one & could not get it to read correct. After doing some searching around, I found out that it was not made for saltwater.
You can get a good SYBON FG100SA for $49.95 at www.aquacave.com I know its a little more money, buts its for saltwater & you can be sure it will be the right refractometer. For $20.00 more, I wouldn't chance it.............How much $$$ do you have into your tank now ??
