I've got a 200 gallon spa. My pH and TA were both very high. I've finally gotten the pH down to 7.6 with muriatic acid, but now my TA has fallen from 40, down to 20. I had been adding baking soda to try to get it up to 50. Is there something else that will bring TA up? Does the age of the...

3 lbs of Sodium Bisulfate for $2.50. Should I stock up? Will I need this?

Some of the feet on my 18 ft 48 in AG pool have sunk in completely under the soil, so you can't see the plastic cap any longer. It's been up two weeks now. Our soil is sandy. It's got the pool just about 2 inches off of being level. Is this something to be concerned about?
