Thanks for all the technical and not so technical advice. I didn't realize that the TA levels wouldn't drop until the pH started rising again. I am quite concerned about my pH levels now. I am afraid that they are too low. My biggest problem right now id that it is an 80 mile drive to Leslies. I will call the few local pool stores and what type of water testing they do, just to get back up testing. I know that my HTH kit is not the best, but so far it is the ONLY kit I have found locally. Home Depot doesn't have any pool stuff out yet and Lowes only has a 2 way kit and strips. Even the pool store that we got the pool from only sells strips.

If I have gotten my pH too low, should I just wait until the aeration slowly brings it up or should I add some borax to bring it up slightly (and the TA too)? How low is too low for pH?
