    Converting from Baq. to chlorine - need some help

    With the help and knowledge from so many here, you'll get though the conversion. I might add that when I did my conversion, the BaquaGoop really clogged up my filter. It may help you to backwash often to keep the filter clean and flush out the goop. I was in the same boat as you; I wasn't...
