I am very new at the tfpc method and I would like to post my readings to see what are your opinions of where i am:
cya.........48
ph..........7.6
fc...........4.5
cc..........0.5
TA.........115
my FC readings for the last day
4/16 @ 4pm ...............7
4/16 @10pm................6.5
4/17 @ 8am ...............5.5
4/17 @ 6pm................4.5
so I am losing about 1ppm overnight i believe 1 or less means water is good no organisms, (please confirm)
and I am losing about 2ppm per 24 hours, it has been sunny temp in the low 80's..but this means that I am losing about the same at night and during the day...Is this right?
My questions: Are my current reading good?
Is my overnight chlorine loss good?
Is my total chlorine/24hour loss good?
Is my CC at 0.5 good?
My TA is kind of high should I leave it or try to lower it?
And so my plan is to let my FC fall to no less then 3 then raise it to about 6 and follow that method which looks like i will be adding every day and a half or so...does this seem right?
Everything I have read seems as if i got it correct, but there is a good chance I am wrong and I would like some feedback
thank you
