    Is your water super-clear? If so, you can let your FC drop on its own. I would seriously consider removing the pucks from the chlorinator, or at least not adding more. The pucks will just add more CYA to your pool and you are already pretty high.

    I was thinking about that, but I'm not sure what to do with them ? They're all soaking wet ... Maybe I'll just toss them in a sealed bucket until the FC comes down.

    You're welcome! I would let the pucks dry out and then store them until you go on vacation and need to add some FC while you are gone. If you store them wet, they will break down to goo.
