Unfortunately, even after 24 hours, the automatic calibration would not consider the probe dry. we even used a hand blower for my PC to dry it more. Didn't work. The automatic calibration won't accept the probe. We did it on manual, but I'm guessing it didn't work, as my salt levels are chaotic. Overall, the tank is about 34 with the refractometer, but the Apex probe is showing up at 24.7 at the moment. any ideas?
