Hi Dave,

    You might want to try Ph Minus in place of Sparex. 

    Ph Minus is the same chemical (sodium bisulfate) as Sparex, but
    doesn't leave the brown scum that sometimes occurs with Sparex. 

    Ph Minus is used to control the Ph of swimming pools & spas.
    Depending on where you live, it's available in swimming pool supply,
    grocery, drug stores & home centers. The last time I bought it, a 7
    pound container was about $7.00. 

Dave
