I will test pH again when I get home. Should I do any other test again, or just the pH. I added acid again last night.
At this point, we are focusing on just pH. After you get pH under control, we can think about the other stuff. (Although it would not be harmful to put in a small jug of Clorox each evening, as your FC has bottomed out.)

Could there be a reason why the acid I added did not drop the pH any at all? The only thing I would like, is if the colors varied in shade more.
Most pool pH testers max out at 8.2; if it's really higher than that, the test can't tell you. It might take a few rounds to get the pH into range, because you can't
assume it's too high; each time you test it at 8.2, you need to act as if it really is 8.2 and not some higher number.
How much acid did you add? How did you decide how much acid to add? I think it would be good to report how much of what you put in, each time, it will help sort out what's going on.
