Thanks for merging the threads I had been hopping back and forth to re-read both.

Back from my weekend away. I had not been home since I read your last post. I tested the water and entered the results on the form you linked. I was pleased to see the pool is very clear. I also cleaned the filter bag on my Dolphin as I usually do before running it and was very pleased to see handfuls of scale from the last cycle. I seem to be making progress. I believe the correct next step is to lower PH to 7.0 again, reorient the eyeballs to riffle the surface again. I'll continue with your program for the next week or so and continue posting results on the chart.
