    new counts: FC=27.5 CC=0 CYA=50 And a little brown stuff on bottom - not sure yet if that is just what I wasn't able to get or if there is something else going on. I thought we were staying in front of the issue by doing SLAM of 31 or 30. So if I stick with that, I need to add 43 oz of bleach...
