Hanna Tester: Proper Vial Storage

What is the proper vial storage?
Empty? Cap on or off?
Fill with Distilled or RO/DI H2O? (Pretty sure that would be cap on )

Some people store them with rodi water. I just rinse them off with tap water, shake them dry, and put them away with cap on. I always rinse them with tank water before use, though.

I just clean with hot water, rinse, dry off with a microfibre cloth, let air dry for an hour and then screw the lid back on and store.

I always just store them empty, dry, cap off. I wouldn't want mildew to start up in them, but I also clean them right before use and rinse in tank water .... Curious to see what other people do

I store all testing viles with rodi water capped and then dump the rodi water into the tank when I’m going to use them and rinse with tank water.

Assuming this is after you've thoroughly cleaned them, of course...
