    Mustard Algae?

    Was able to resume my normal slam but was having trouble passing OCLT because over night rains kept messing with my morning chlorine levels. Plus the green spots pictured above keep coming back over night. But I kept slamming for several days during which time my water became sparking and the...

    Mustard Algae?

    Phosphates are high according to Leslie but per advice here, I am disregarding it and have not tried removing it. Have I touched what stuff? Are you asking if the deposits are sand? I have not gone in to take a close look at it but I can try that. I can't remember when I last changed my sand...

    Can't Upload Pictures

    Can't Upload Pictures

    I am trying to upload pictures (.jpg) to a post but it keeps saying the file is too large for the server to process. I have changed my camera settings to the lowest resolution and the file sizes are only 6-7Mb in size. Any ideas on what is causing this?
