    What's your CYA(stabilizer) level?

    With a CYA of 30-50ppm, 3ppm of FC is the MINIMUM you should have. 3-6 is your normal range.

    If your CYA is below that, that may well be the cause of your FC dropping. With no CYA, sunlight's UV rays can break FC down in as little as 15 minutes.

    thanks, CYA is slightly lower than 30. Trying to get it up to 40 using pucks so I get the added benefit of the chlorine. Guess I need to monitor daily for a few weeks to get a feel for how quickly it drops daily.
