Hello, All.
So, this is probably the 5th time I get algae this season. I'm just confused and wondering what I'm doing wrong. Here are my #s:
FC - 6
CC - 0.5
PH - 7.8
TA - 70
CH - 160
CYA - 40
Temp - 75°
SALT -3000
FC has been consistently at 6, and I thought that was in range for CYA 40. I decided not to raise CYA again after my last outbreak because of the cooler weather coming.
What am I doing wrong? Could it be bad circulation? I try to brush it and move the water every day. Might miss a day here and there. I vacuum it. The water is super clear.
Or, does a higher PH make the chlorine less effective? I've kept my PH at 7.8 because lowering it really lowers CSI.
It's always just 1 or 2 small green spots on the walls. Usually in areas that don't get much from the jets. But I've moved them around to find the bes
