Thank you ... good to know!
New numbers a few hours later (after 2 lbs borax) -
PH - 7.2
FC - 10 (I think we're killing some stuff)
CC - @ .5 (maybe a bit less now - makes some sense)
Shall I just run the pump all night and check chlorine in the AM?
And, should I raise the PH a bit more? ie, 1 more lb of borax?
Then I'll test all numbers again mid-day tomorrow. I won't budge until I hear something here.
