Hello, I started slamming 14 days ago and have been successful at getting rid of the algea. My problem now is blue water that will not completely clear. The water is not green, cloudy or aqua in color...it is the correct color of blue just not real clear. I ran numbers and came up with these
CYA 45-50
PH 8.2 or higher
Calcium 100
TA 260
FC 16
CC 0
OCLT 0
This is the second time I have run these numbers and the results are identical except the FC which was 17.5 last time
My filter is working well (the gauge has quit but I can tell when a backwash is needed by the force of the water coming out the return) I also do a backwash and rinse after vacuuming each day. Can I stop the slam and just wait for my filter to complete the clearing or will my high PH and TA numbers keep it from clearing completely. Thanks for any advice.
