Yes, keep adding the recommended maintenance dose and you need to keep an eye on your pH...don't let it get above 7.6 or staining could occur again.Originally Posted by MartyW

So if I understand this, the metal is in the water and it can't be removed? I will always have to use a sequesterant as routine maintenance? Is there other sources to purchase it in larger quantities?
Thanks for you help

Thanks again, I appreciate all your help.

I am going to be using Metal Magic by ProTeam this week and it (in theory) will make the iron in the water "crystallize" so that it can be filtered and vaccuumed out.
You aren't Marty Weston by any chance are you?
No, the last name is Wagner. Let me know how the Metal Magic works. I suspect my metal is probably copper from my heater, although I really try to keep my pH high enough to keep it from leaching the copper out.
Thanks Marty
I will post after I use the metal magic.. I think it's scheduled for delivery tomorrow. Marie (mbar) is also trying it out, she is actually who gave me the idea to try it.
I would think your heater is where the metals (copper) are coming from. I don't have a heater so hopefully once I deal with the metals they will be out, until I have to add water or something.
