RE: That confuses me - Also any recommendations

Hornlover's explanation is correct. Oddly enough, a good way to remember it is to consider non-polarized electrolytic caps. The reason why non-polarized caps are so expensive is because each cap is two polarized caps wired in series. Consequently, each of their values is cut in half. So, your 68uF cap is actually two 136uF polarized caps wired in series with their positive terminal pointed out. So, if you wanted to bypass your 68uF non-polarized cap and maintain the same capacitance, you could wire two 100uF polarized caps in series, with their positive terminals facing outward , and bypass the whole with a 10uf and an 8uf film caps in parallel.
