Are your test strips old. Get new ones for accuracy. High pH= with the circulation on - add more muriatic acid and test in 20 min. Need 7.6 stabilized readings. Stabilizer= add 5# per 10,000 gal. You need 50 to 80 ppm stabilizer/conditioner levels. Add more chlor with circ. on and test with in 20 min. If no reading you did not add enough chlor. -- add more. Keep this up until you get the readings you need. Then that will be approx how much chlor your pool will take almost each time it needs it. But you have to get the condit. to required levels. It may take 3 to 4 days to get there depending upon how warm the water is.

Your pool is clear but will not register chlorine?
How old are the test solutions or test strips? Replace if left in the sun or more than a year old. Do you have a chlorine odor? If yes, shock. Has the filter been cleaned recently? If not, clean. Do you have a chlorine stabilizer or conditioner added to the pool? If not add until residual is about 50 to 70 ppm. Add more chlorine and test for correct pH and alkalinity. Adjust if needed. Increase time on pump for the summer. Ken

I have removed the reflective strips from an ambulance but can't get the residual adhesive off. Is there a solution for this?
I find that WD-40 actually works pretty well. And there are commercial products that are specifically designed to be "sprayed on" and will dissolve adhesive. Be sure to use a good grease cutter (409, Simple Green, Big Orange, etc.) to remove any residual adhesive remover, whatever one you choose.
What should you do about swimming with your ileostomy?
I get waterproof strips to stick around the base plates. You can get these from coloplast. Also I wear a costume especially made for people with stomas, there is a little pocket on the inside of the costume for peace of mind. I find that a patterned costume hides the lumps and bumps created by having a bag so no one knows you have one.

How do you get the alkalinity right in a freshwater tank?
You can buy pH tester strips from any pet shop, use them to determine the current pH. level, which is how acidic or basic the water is, and then you can buy tablets to correct the pH and alkalinity to a neutral 7.0. The brand of dip test strips I use is Jungle Quick Dips and the stabilizer I use is Jungle Correct pH, they have worked thus far since I have became an aquarium hobbyist.
