Okay I have a couple of questions for the group. Here they go..
1) Just got done with a proper shock about 1 week ago (as some may recall). CC has been zero up today. Today it was 0.5. What is an acceptable level of CC before a shock is necessary? Does CC fluctuate a bit even though the pool is in balance over all?
2) I have a TF-100 Test Kit. In the Calcium Hardness Test, it says to add to the solution until it turns blue. My solution never really turns blue. It turns more of a purple color. I call that close enough and my CH levels seem normal. It is also hard to see when exactly the change over to purple really takes place. Does this sound normal to everybody?? Just checkin'
Of course, maybe I am being too much a perfectionist about this stuff. I am still trying to get a feel for these numbers.
FC 8 (I know this is high, but working on getting the right SWG percentage)
CC 0.5
TA 80
CYA 60
CH 200 (I think)
pH 7.2
Salt 3050
Thanks in advance
