Hi everyone,
I am truly enjoying my TFP thanks to this site! I just have one minor issue that I can't figure out. My water has been balanced and crystal clear for the past 6 weeks. I recently added borax and have been pleased with the results. However, my TA is creeping up rather quickly (at the rate of about .2 per day) I have a waterfall, but this is without the WF running.
Here are my results:
FC - 4 (never below 2)
CC - <.5 (always between 0 and .5)
pH - 8.0 (trying to keep it at 7.5, but I ran out of MA to bring it down)
TA - 70 (typically low, between 60 to 70)
CH - 380 (was down to 360 but I think its being re-absorbed from the deposits on the plaster)
CYA - 20
BOR - 40
16, 000 gal, in-ground, plaster, cartridge filter
Any ideas?
Much appreciated!
Dave
