    Default Re: Newbie needs advice....so confused

    OK, I have officially started the conversion

    I am getting stabilizer, metal out, and calcium increaser. Yesterday I slowed added bleach to get to a level of 10.5 when I went to bed. This morning my numbers were as follows:

    FC 7.0
    CC 0
    PH 7.2
    TA 50
    CYA 0

    When I tried to test my calcium level it turned yellow instead of red. Do you know why it did this? My TA is dropping a bit...do I need to increase it?

    I added 2 more jugs of bleach to bring it back up to 10....I just keep it at 10 all day today and tonight, right?

    The water is clear...I can see the bottom easily but the deep end is just a bit hazy.

    Thanks again for your continued help.
