New PH probe?

Is this how brand new out of the box looks? No fluid in the rubber cap but, the body full of fluid?

The reference fluid in the body is correct but there should be storage fluid in the rubber cap as well. If you pop the cap off and it is wet it may be fine and you can calibrate it and be fine. If they sit on the shelf too long before shipping the storage fluid seems to evaporate over time. You would think it would be air tight with the rubber cap but its just not always the case.

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

It depends on how badly I want the fish

Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

I haven’t really considered this before

Something else (see my comments in the thread)
