Thanks Aylad, I've already been back to my original post and laughed at myself! I swear! the water then was bubbling like crude oil... : ) So I pulled up the picture of how our water CAN look...and that's what I'm aiming for again.

Glad to see you back around the forum this season, Swamp Mistress!

I considered changing my forum name...but after looking at my water again this year, it still fits.

The good news, I didn't lose much chlorine last night.

To reiterate, when our well water was tested, we were told we have Tanins (decomposed tree bark) in our water..so not exactly sure what I'm fighting with, but the sock method seems to extract it. It's labor intensive and I have to be careful because it's like dealing with haircolor..stains everything it touches. Luckily, ascorbic acid removes the stains and I can buy vitamin c crystals @ Trader Joes.

Here is what the filters looked like this am:
