Maybe I'm getting picky, but I have been wondering whats going on with my water for some time now. Overall the water is perfect. I do deal with ph creeping up and am constantly adding acid.

My situation is this. Although my water appears clear, when I turn on the light at night you can see suspended particals in the water in front of the light, a lot of them. It is not noticeable unless you look right by the light. This bugs me since I have a DE filter and use an aquabot cleaner once a week, both of which are supposed to filter particles finer than the eye can see.

Am I being too picky, or should my water truly be perfectly clear?

20,000 IG / Gunite / SWG / DE filter / one skimmer
FC - 3
CC - 0
PH - 7.6
Alk - 80
CH - 260
Borates - 45
Salt - 3200

Oh yeah. I do have a stand of trees on one side of the pool, so there is stuff falling into the pool pretty constantly that gets to the skimmer or gets scooped out by me.

Thanks for any input
Dave
