Thanks! What is a good source of Vit C? Vitamin store ? Any formulation or any particular formulation? (sorry for the newbie questions) . Thank you! Appreciate the help QUOTE=Richard320;1037845]That's news to me, too. I recommend the Vitamin C first. If the stain lifts, it's metals...

Thanks!

Hi i opened a green pool this year. After SLAM was finally able to remove the algae and have a blue pool. Now m vinyl cover has stains which look like algae at the bottom. We use well water in our pool and is high in iron content. I don't know whether these are organic stains, stains from the...

Thanks

Hi newbie here...with a newbie question. My pool is 40 x 20 feet , 40000 gallons. i have a Polaris automatic vacuum and an automatic pool cover. Don't get a lot of leaves in the pool because I close the cover on windy days. My question is how often and how long should I operate the Polaris ...

Thanks. Somehow I was under the impression that the third B in BBB stands for bromine and that once you add boric acid it makes the water smoother and acts as an algae static. There is a whole page in these forums extolling its virtues. Having dealt with a green pool once.... I want to make sure...

1. Yes OCLT passed 3 days ago. (From the tf 100 kit) 2. Can you please tell me why ionizing systems are not recommended ? Is it just cost or they can harm the pool? 3. Pictures: Will test water tomorrow and post latest numbers. thanks

Hi guys . An update... The pool has been blue for three days now! Once I got my kit I started testing two times a day. Maintained FC at shock levels and one day woke up to a blue pool! Few days of vacuuming and now letting the chlorine drift down. Now my questions are : 1. what next? ( my...

Thanks! I have kept my FC stable. I don't understand why my CC increased from 0 to 2 on the last test.

The pool has gotten much better. Not crystal blue but very very light green. The current numbers are : CYA 27 FC 13 CC 2 total ALK 144 ph 7.8 my question is, now what ? Continue adding chlorine or let it slowly drift down ? thanks

I want to paste current pictures, but it won't let me.... Says I have met my quota. Can somebody tell me how to paste the current pictures ?

Thanks. But my FC has stayed pretty constant over the past 3 days at 15. And TC is 15 also ( which would make CC 0 right?).As per the chart, I need the FC of 10-11 per my CYA level of 20. Am I putting too much chlorine in ? ( I put 2 gallons of 10% liquid chlorine every day ) . should I cut...

Thank you! Also, it is rust colored algae.... Is that mustard algae?

Thank you very much! Testing twice a day will be difficult as I go to work very early. I can do that in the weekends though. The latest numbers from today are TC 15 FC 15 PH 7.8 Cya 20 ALK 146 The water was getting light green and Cloudy so I put in the bottle of FLOC I already had to speed...
