Mixing salt and water while controlling PH and temperature -

Hi,

I am looking for a method to automatically mix salt water while controlling
the PH and temperature. I'm guessing salt water fish tanks require such
things...

This salt water would be used for laboratory testing, not to support fish
life (currently the salt water is mixed by hand, checking specific gravity
and PH along the way while making minor adjustments a few times a week).

Any pointers to specific brads, hardware, sensors, and so on would be
greatly appreciated. If you happen to know the tolerance that the systems
are able to maintain that would be useful to know as well but I'm sure I can
work with the manufacturers to learn that.

Thanks,

David
