Thanks Chem Geek for taking the time to help me. I will watch my pH levels and FC very closely. If I find the pH rising, I will certainly add more CYA. I am going to look into buying a better test kit this weekend. I guess the thing that I am starting to understand is that this is a completely new system. I NEVER had to add any acid to lower the pH before with the old chlorine system, seriously the dry acid would literaly harden in the bottle.

I think you guys may have cracked the code, meaning I think I am starting to understand. Waste, Carl, Watermom, thanks to all of you for your help. This is an awsome websight.
