Thanks!!!

My Taylor kit came in today!! Way ahead of the promised date of June 4th!! Yay! so after reading the manual and feeling a bit like a mad scientist, I have readings:

FC 25
CC 2
pH 7.4
Alk 600 (and sample was still yellow--I gave up after 60 drops and no red)
CH 210
Cya 130-ish (the test read over the 100 mark-well technically below the 100 mark)

I am still keeping the algae swept up into the water and running the pump 24/7. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!
