Can high levels of fc cause a cc increase?

[RESISTENCIA13]

So I am down to my final testing before closing this Saturday and my TA test was kind of inconclusive. I did it twice same result. The water did not turn red as usual instead I got pinkish color. See attached picture.....has this ever happened to anyone?

My results were as follows:

Water Temperature 61
FC 23.5
CC 0
PH 7.2
TA 70 (assuming I can rely on the pinkish color as red)
CYA 60
CH 550
Salt not sure. My salt system tells me 3800, but is impossible as last time I check was 3400 and the test trip results is 3000.

All drops test are complete when the color stops changing. It is essentially not very important what it changes to but that it stops changing.

Can you please provide step by step directions on how you did the test?

When you add 5 drops of R-0008, the solution should turn green or blue. If this happened, then you start adding R-0009 (on drop at a time, wiping the tip of the bottle) until the color changes to something more or less of :

RED
PINK
YELLOW
CLEAR

Then multiply by 10. You are fine if the pink is in this section (like you mentioned). If it is at the 5 drops of R-0008, then you have an issue.

Yes, the water turns green after the 5 drops of R-0008. I get the pink after adding the R-0009. Once again thanks for your help.

Then your TA is fine. I actually have printed out the areas that apply to the TF-100 Test Kit, in the "extended test directions" as they have more information, and keep them with my kit, for situations like this one. Take care.
