Couple things. I tried to keep my tank nice and pretty and zip tied all the probe cables together. I found out thats a big no no. For some reason if those cables are near each other my probe goes out of wack.
Secondly, I had to turn off the temp comp because it just made things worse and threw readings off. once thats turned off i calibrate my probe. when calibrating my probe i leave the calibration fluid in the sump the night before and calibrate the next day when i get off work. When i calibrate my probe it will say 35ppt at my home screen while the probe is STILL in calibration fluid. Remember, i just finished calibrating it and went to my home screen without taking the probe out of the calibration fluid yet. If (keyword: IF) I was to take it out of the fluid and put it into my sump right away it would read 45-50ppt. I know its not right but it does. As soon as im ready to put the probe back into the sump I go into my apex and reboot it from fusion, then i swap the probe into the sump and when the apex comes back online its reading 35ppt in the sump.
I would guess that im tricking the apex into thinking it never went out of the water BUT it works everytime and like a charm when i do it this way. I bought a pack of 50 for every calibration fluid there is and tried all kinds of different ways to calibrate it and this was the best way i found.
