SEN-0169 PH Sensor issue

Hi
I'm using SEN0169 and other sensors to monitoring the water quality.
The PH sensor I've been use for a month and there's some problem occurred.
I got another professional equipment to measure the PH value which is bought from another company (YALAB).
Both of PH sensor can read the PH=7 and PH=4 with standard liquid.
But when I dropped the sensor to my fish tank, there is a problem.
DFROBOT's PH sensor showed the PH around 1.5, but YALAB's sensor value is 7.3.
I tested both of sensor for many times and it shows the DFROBOT's value can not be use in fish tank.
I already check the software and it's totaly fine.
Is there anyone have the same problem?
Or this sensor should not be use under water for permament?

1. YALAB with PH=7 liquid and shows the value 7.01

2. DFROBOT with PH=7 liquid also shows the value around 7.15

3.YALAB with fishtank shows the value 7.3

4.DFROBOT with fishtank shows the value 1.5

5.Standard liquid I used

Could you use different solution to have more comparison test? The result is weird since the tank water should not be around 1.5
Hi sir!
The problem was occurred when I am trying to put my whole device in to the fish farm.

So I went back and check it and discovered the PH sensor does have some problem.
The only other device for PH measurment is YALAB.
So I ask about sensor to them. They told me the sensor like this have the service life.
Both of sensors look pretty similar. But I think that service life should not be shorter than a month.
Here's YALAB's sensor as the picture below.
And DFROBOT have been use arount one month.

And here's the YALAB's sensor product:
