I have brown slime algae again!
I've had some success using pool shock to keep my rdwc sterile, but I think I've been under dosing it. Im wondering if this makes sense
res size is 600 gallons
goal chlorine ppm is 3
city water is 1ppm chlorine
1ppm=1mg chlorine per liter
so my 600 gallon res is 2271 liters so to add 2ppm chlorine to it i need to add 4541mg of the calcium hypochlorite to it, but hth is 45% so that 4541*2.22= 10081 mg of calcium hypochlorite
or 10.081 grams.
i just want to make sure there are no glaring errors with this before i dump 10 grams of this shit into my res, this is just seems like too much.
thanks
