Oh I've considered it.. it has to be contamination or a pest.. I pulled these little snails that appeared put of no where .. changed the carbon and getting ready for a massive WC. 

 

 

Tested the refracometer while rodi and it was zero and then tested it with this cal fluid.. I seriously am pretty damn sure I'm not making a rookie move but am hoping someone chimes in with something I'm stupidly missing... I'm stumped

That shell shape looks allot like box or sundail snails, but the colors are all wrong, no clue what they are.

The alkalinity swing is the only real mystery that you mentioned.

 

How much were you dosing prior to shutting the doser off?

 

Do you have a trend line for your alkalinity tests up to the point where you shut itt off?

 

How stable was alk up to that point?
