PH probe calibration question

[armandoarturo]

I’ve been looking around internet and I just cant find the answer to this.
When I calibrate my PH Neptune probe….Do I just take the probe out of my aquarium and insert it into the ph calibration fluir package? Or do I need to soak it into RO/DI water to get it clean and then into the calibration package?
Thanks a lot!!

I would clean since your pulling out anyway. Make sure you wipe it off in between fluids real good so you don't contaminate the calibration fluid.
