the water is now showing a slightly green color.
i am in costa rica and having trouble finding a proper test kit, but have now at least located a CYA kit- arrives tommorow.
i can now purchase SODA ASH, GRANULATED CHLORO- or liquid bleach if better, CYA, sodium bicarbonate
i know i need to raise my pH and CYA and add chlorine-
how much, and in what sequence is best recommended
i am surprised the water is showing green already.
