HIGH OR LOW TOTAL ALKALINITY??
HIGH OR LOW TOTAL ALKALINITY??
I tested my total alkalinity in my pool and I had to add 7 drops of a solution to correct the alk. level Each drop=10ppm. If i have to add 7 drops to get the desired color DOES THAT MEAN IT HAS 70 PPM??, and do I need to lower or raise my total alkalinity???? Help please!! All other chemicals are at normal levels incl. PH. [/b] Also my pool is salt water, FIBERGLASS, and 23000 gallons.

You haven't stated what your pool is made of. However, I would normally not bother adjusting the TA at this level.
