Do apogee sensor sink or float ?

[Patx]

Hello,
Im preparing to rent a apogee 510.

My led are in a closed lid...
No choice to close it to have light in the tank...
Can't use the wand etc...

Do the sensor sink ?
Or will i have to add weights to make it sit in place ?

Thk!

You need to have it on the end of a stick to move around. Does it come with a wand or stick?

I have to close my top... light inside (A8)

Will (maybe) use a bare copper wire, (or2)
And cover it with electric tape...
Or "attach" the sensor to a rock...

will see :thinking-face:

You can place the sensor in place and then close the lid. Measure, raise the lid and move the sensor.
They don't float, but the wand and cable may hinder closing the light lid? Any access ports in the top
