That is correct. You are getting it!!!1
As it stands right now, your CYA is unreadable under 30, but, your sample is cloudy so we can assume some cya is there but there is no way of telling how much exactly....so.... you could be at 4 or 29.. not sure. By adding small amounts you can start to pinpoint where you will be. I think 1lb will give you a max increase of 11-12 cya so even if you are at 29, you will still be at the 40ish mark, which is your target for normal operations.
You are currently slamming at 20 cya level because we dont know what it is...and wont until you get a better reading. You could raise it to 12 to anticipate the 30 cya. Anything above your normal FC level will be handing the algae
Just a small "tip" after watching your video,
Get yourself a squeeze bottle and dedicate it for water testing. They sell them at WalMart or just about any dollar store. Fill this bottle up rather than dipping your vials or bottles into the water. In very short time the sticker will fall off your mixing bottle if you continue to dunk it into the water.
So you've now added 1 pound of CYA into a sock correct?
Anyone mind linking me to a scale they use?
