I have a 16x32 AG Doughboy that I am just getting running after putting in a new liner. I filled it mostly from our well although mother nature has been helping out way to much for the last week here in Wisconsin. I used an HTH test kit. The readings show 0 Chlorine, even after shocking adding 1 lb of Super Sock It, PH is 8.2 after I added about 15 oz. of PH + ( to much), AlKalinity of 450 ppm, and Hardness of 450ppm.
If I go by the HTH web site I'm supposed to add 1lb of PH - to get the ph down, but then 633 lbs of PH- to get the TA under control.
What the *#!! do they think I'm smokin'
