It is all done. Now just straightening calcium and TA. Thanks for everyone's help.

No copper and iron was 0.1. My TA is 131, but I am not sure that I should worry about it until I finish the conversion. My FC was low after all day in the sun without any attention and I added 2 jugs of bleach (128oz) when I got home at 7pm. At 930 we were up to 14.5. Our water is the tiniest...

Thank you. I changed the thread because I wasn't being patient enough I think. You were the only one who had answered in 2 days. You are right, the lack of history isn't helpful. I wondered because of not putting anything on the forum in almost two weeks had harmed us for getting help. I am just...

Re: In middle of conversion to Chlorine from Baquacil. HELP!!! i thought of another question. Because my filter has very little HP, can I floc the water to help the suspended goo go to the bottom, so I can vacuum it?

Re: In middle of conversion to Chlorine from Baquacil. HELP!!! Thank you. We have a teeny pump and I think that is part of the problem. We have been changing it every 8 hours, but more was probably needed. It will be hard to do it during the workweek any more than that. I will post again when...

Re: In middle of conversion to Chlorine from Baquacil. HELP!!! I think you are right. I am just overthinking things. I do not drink Mountain Dew, but after you called it that, it is that exact color. I retread that post agin and have stopped testing for CC. Thanks for helping me relax a bit. Of...

Re: In middle of conversion to Chlorine from Baquacil. HELP!!! Thanks in advance for your help. I have only been adding regular bleach- no scents. No, I am not done converting and have not reach the parameters yet. I used town water to fill it, but I do not know if they have a problem with...

Re: In middle of conversion to Chlorine from Baquacil. HELP!!! Yes, I have read a bunch of them, but I hadn't read anything about people's water turning green. Mine turned colors with the bleach, but then went back to clear. Last evening when I put the bleach in is when it turned the whole pool...

In middle of conversion to Chlorine from Baquacil. HELP!!! I need HELP. I am in the middle of the conversion and everything was going great until yesterday. My pool is green. Last night :FC 9.5 and CC:4. This morning FC is 4 , CC is 6.5. I added bleach to bump it back up. There was gooo...

All, When I was adding chlorine it would turn orange in thevery pool. Now it stopped and theven WHOLE pool is green. My CC is high. I just checked it and my FC is 2.5 and my CC is 5.5. I bumped my FC back up to 15. What am I doing wrong? See attached picture of the pool that is green. Do pools...

Thanks. I did waste the water and I threw the floats in this time. I am about to vacuum again. My FC was3 and the CC was 6 just now. Will add more bleach to get it back to 15.

I have a few more questions now. When you add the chlorine, as the baqua is eaten up will the colors stop or lessen? I brushed the walls and floor of the pool and around the intakes. I have plastic pool stairs that you add water in to keep them done. My husband upgraded the stairs for the kids...
