    When was the last time you tested CYA and what was it then?

    You're ok for now. I wouldn't add any more CYA at this point. And, as long as you're not adding anymore, no reason to test it anytime soon.

    Thanks Watermom - will check level in AM. Guessing that big drop in FC allowed algae to bloom.
