I was just about ready to call this well and good, but last night has thrown me for a loop.
Last night I tested everything:
FC: 8
CC: 0
TA: 60
CA: 30
CYA: 20
pH: 7.2
I threw two pounds of shock in the pool to bring the CYA back up since weve had 3+ inches of rain since Saturday and I know thats brought my FC and CYA down. I also added Calcium to bring that up, because I expected to wake up this morning being around 12 FC based on how the previous couple of nights have gone with losing 2-3 ppm overnight.
Instead, I wake up to this:
FC: 0.5
CC: 0
TA: 60
CA: 200
CYA: 30
pH: 7.2
So, while the shock did in fact bring my CYA up, all my chlorine is gone. I raised it with a couple bottles of bleach, but where did it go?
Also, Im having a reoccurring issue that Im unsure about. My water is crystal clear (see pics) but I keep winding up with something, some kind of sediment maybe? Its always in the same spots.
Doesnt matter how much I vacuum, its always back within 12 hours or so. What is it? Right now, Im really concerned that I have an underground leak in a water line, BUT, Im not losing water at any pace that I can measure.
