    Default Feedback needed on first results

    Received my PS234 today and tested:
    FC 4.5
    CC 1
    TC 5.5
    pH between 7.2 and 7.5, probably 7.4
    Alk 130
    Cal 300+ (I quit after 30 drops -- no change -- little pink globs swirling in the sample...???)
    Cya 55

    Pool specifics are in my sig.
    TIA,

    Shock with bleach to 20 ppm, then see if you have any CC. If not, you are done.

    Re-check your calcium. Recommended numbers for concrete/plaster pools is 200-400ppm and you only got to 300. As lono as it's in that range you are FINE, but higher is a problem.

    Alk is technically a tad high but I wouldn't worry--it's only 130.
