EDITED: so I can add CC
FC: 17.5
CC: 0.5
CYA: 20
pH: 7.2
TA: 100
CH: 50
I think I have mustard algae, but I'm not sure why it doesn't seem to be lessening in numbers. I have two spots on the pool that have buildups in the morning and when I return home from work.
I assumed it was mustard because after SLAMming at 10FC nothing really seemed to be happening, I bumped it up to 14. The 17.5 is because I wasn't paying attention and just dumped in a gallon of 10%. I even poured in 32oz of polyquat 60 yesterday hoping for some assistance as this has been going on for several days now.
I vacuumed last night and brushed but this morning the same spots had (what I can only assume) is re-growth of the algae.
The puzzling thing to me is my FC didn't drop last night. It did the night before (by about 2 FC), but I measured 17.5 at 10pm. The sample was taken from the same spot at approximately the same depth.
Do I just need to keep SLAMming?
