Author Topic: water change gone bad (Read 3491 times)

Ok so the saga continues. I filled the water and it was at 41degrees. So I grab the bromine reserve pack and pour it in the tub, all the sudden the water turns bright green. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I call the dealer and he said this happens when you put the reserve in with cold water. Is this true.

two hours of heating and the tub is at 65 degrees and the water has lost some green but is still not perfect clear yet.

The last water change I did, did not do this so I am wondering if there is something that I did wrong.

Also tends to go colors if the pH / TA is extremely high or low.

Wait for the tub to heat, check and balance water - don't add anything else until you do.

How's the weather now?

You must be new at this. �This ALWAYS happens around March 17th and many people wonder why. �I hope this information helps, because you know what is at the other end of the rainbow don't you, leprechauns and a pot of gold, they were sending you a message. �
