It could well be some Calcium scale. All you know is that your pH is off the scale --- you don't know exactly how far. Get the pH down and keep brushing and it may go back into solution.Another question.
Brushed the pool last night and I'm getting some kind of deposit forming on the walls, floor, etc. It's like some kind of calcification or something?
Is that something caused by the levels I have?
Any ideas on what I need to adjust to fix?
Thanks.
I added 2 lbs of baking soda last night (about half of what was recommended targeting TA of 100) and my TA went from 40 up to 70, that's good.
My Ph hopped up from 7.4 to 8.0 - seemed like a bigger jump than I was expecting - although my expectations don't come from much experience
So I added about 10 oz of 31.45% acid this a.m and we'll see where we're at this evening before I think about more Baking Soda.
Also - FC is at 3.8 and CC is 0 so I didn't worry about any more bleach today.
Make sense?

Thanks Matt,
I haven't measured my fill water, can do that tonight as I will probably need to add a bit by this weekend.
I don't have any sources for aeration.
Also it's a new pool, don't know if that has anything to do with any advice - completed just before Christmas.
