    Thanks, Watermom!

    I was unsure of the strength of the CYA on the acid scale, so I'll go ahead with the muriatic to lower the pH, and continue to aerate until the TA and TH come down.

    Here are a couple of pics of what I was using to circulate/aerate the water, and what I'm using now:



    I don't know if copper would leach from the fittings or not, but from what I've read here, it may not be something I want in my pool.

    So, I made this with a replacement cap:

    Very clever! Thanks for sharing that pic! (And, you're right. You do NOT want copper in your pool.)
