    Default Re: Light green water

    After much filtering and back washing my water is crystal clear; however, I have no chlorine levels. Should I add more of the calcium and metal remover before chlorinating? I have a lot of algaecide 60 in to prevent algae while I was awaiting my new test kit. I think all the back washing took my CYA way down. Anyway here are my readings.

    Water temp - 69
    PH - 7.3
    Alk. - 200
    CH - 400
    CYA - undetectable
    FC - 0
    CC - 0
    Saturation Index - 1.0

    Oh yeah, my acid demand test was 2.
