I'm into the 2nd day of doing a SLAM to eliminate what I believe is algae (see pics).
When I started my CYA was 60, PH around 7.6.
The pool was clear when I started, just had some patches of algae. The patch in the spa was algae as it was actually green, the other patches I'm not so sure.
According to the pool math calculator I need my FC level to be at 24. My last test was around 17. My overnight drop was about 8.
My question is that everytime I've done the FAS-DPD test and then add the drops for CC, it does not turn pink again. Is this normal? From what I understand about the process, it should immediately turn pink with the 5 drops and then 1 drop of R-0871 should turn it clear again to reach the .5 goal?
