Thank you jcowart. I knew I must have tested wrong. I will swim down and see if I can feel it. There is a little down there everyday. Other wise the water is clear and my cc is zero now. Thank you again.

Thank you! This site is amazing and do are all of you.

Ok. I forgot to mention that CC is <1. It barely turns a tiny bit pink. Very very faint. I can see the bottom perfectly. It is very clear. Hard to tell in the pic though I know. And my overnight test last night showed a .5 increase. Obviously I did something wrong there I know. So I guess I will...

Hi, it's me again. So here I am two or three days later. My current readings are FC 21.5 TA 100 CYA 50 CH 150 PH 7.8 Let me tell you what's been going on. The water was very cloudy. Like a pool full of watered down milk. I've been shocking and maintaining 20ppm. Everyday the water gets clearer...

Oh PH is 7.2

Ok so when I got home from work today the pool was clearer. You can see the bottom now. But it's still a little cloudy. It's not crystal clear but it is better. I took the tablets out of the strainer basket and I added borax to raise the PH. I can't tell if there is sand on the bottom of the...

Ok. Thank you. I will let it go for tonight. Thanks to ALL of you for your help. I will be staying in touch through this process. Thanks again!

Hmm. True true point! It was dark. I'm in such a state of turmoil that I forgot that part. Thank you for pointing that out. So I should retest tomorrow. That could change things. What would you recommend I do tonight? The pump is running and there are 3 tablets in. The skimmer right now. How...

My brain is overheating and I can't even think clearly right now. Sorry for rambling.

If they did add stabilizer, I don't see the container for it. Everything I listed is what I have in front of me that was opened and used. There are three trichloro-s-triazinetrione tablets in the skimmer basket right now. I'm not sure what to do with those. Do I take them out and add the bleach...

Ok, my test results. Ph was very pale. Below 6.8 but I don't know how much. FC 2.5 CC .5 TC 3 TA 70 CH tested without copper 180 CH rested with copper 170 CYA looked about 60 So what does all of this mean. Do I need to do a metals test? Am I doomed? Thanks.
