    6.8 is the lowest pH level a lot of kits will show (probably yours too??), so it could be a lot below 6.8 and that's why you're not showing an increase.

    Yeah I was thinking that and when i took a sample of pool water into my pool store...they said my Ph was 7.1. I added a box of borax since then and I'm still reading 6.8. Maybe I'll try to find my test strips and see what they think. I'll take another sample to the pool store and see if they get a higher reading than 7.1.
