Hi thanks for sticking w/me. I am back & still green. I will go test again we tested this a.m about hr or 2 after I added more Cal Hypo & FC was 3. Should we be vacuuming to waste daily? I was gonna add another gal of bleach? Thank you

last night 4 scoops which is a 12 oz plastic container & this a.m another 3 scoops. :)

Lol I understand! yes we vacuumed to waste & I put 2 gal of bleach (that I bought at winnDixie @ $3.79 a pop ,not any cheaper than shock?)& the cal hypo but just a small diff this morning in green color but unfortunately I didn't have the skimmers open. :( Opened this morning & put more Cal...

You have been such a big help & I appreciate your patience. I would love to get this down so I can free myself of the pool store. I hope that it is possible w/out a degree in chemistry? The pool is just so green & I have company coming this weekend & hope I can have this fixed by then. I also...

Thank you I will do as you said. should we vacuum prior to these additions? Do I understand correctly that I use a gallon of household bleach instead of a 1lb bag of shock so for a pool of my size I should use 3 gal of household bleach? Are you also suggesting that I take the 3" tablets out of...

I was wondering what if any is the difference between Calcium hypochlorite & Bleach? My pool is green & I am trying to fix it. I have added Calcium hypochlorite but do I need to go buy some bleach instead. I have been reading for hrs on your site & I am very overwhelmed. I do have a basic test...
