I found this brand of bleach at tractor supply, is it worth using? A-1 Bleach 5.25% http://www.foodservicedirect.com/produc ... -Ounce.htm

TC - 5 pH - 7.5 T/A - 60 CH - 160 CYA - 0 Added conditioner the other day, no effect yet so I added the rest today for CYA. I did pool calc and should add baking soda to raise the T/A right? Do I need to add something to increase calcium or can I leave it alone? Thanks!

Main concern is I don't feel suction in the skimmer hole or when I try to vacuum to waste. What should I do? I just opened last night, have 3 kiddos under 5 so doing the best I can brushing and testing. This is 3rd year with poo forum, would think I know everything but feels new each year...
