    I did read the sticky on how to lower alkalinity and that is what I am following.

    A quick question about the liquid muratic acid: Is there an equivalency between liquid muratic acid and the dry acid? In other words, how much muratic acid should I add at each time?

    I think you'll find that it takes less muriatic acid than dry to get the job done, but there's not really an equivalency between the two....just add enough muriatic acid to get your pH down to the 7.0 - 7.2 range. mwsmith has a calculator at this link http://www.hal-pc.org/~mwsmith2/BleachCalc262.exe
    that can help you figure out how much to add, based on your current pH.
