Clear until i sweep

No. Stop using all pucks. Your CYA is high enough and pucks constantly add more.

Get all your chlorine from liquid or install a SWG.

4.5FC and 0CC. Was at 10FC last night. That seem normal or positive indication of algae consuming it. Added 1 jug of liquid chlorine. Will check it again in a bit. Also will vacuum this weekend and do another full test after. Still clouds when I sweep or run the vacuum but I know I am Just starting treatment so. Will keep you all posted. Thanks again for the help!’

5/10FC was 8.5 that morning. Today5/11 it is 3.0FC. I vacuumed so see if that takes care of the white cloud. With CYA at 70 should my FC be stable or is it indicating I got bugs? Need to slam?

For a 70 CYA, a 5.5 ppm loss in a day is too much, unless it incorporated 2 daytimes and the nighttime between the 2.

My note said 5/10 morning so 6am test and I just tested today at about 3pm

So that's basically 2 full 'daytimes' and a 5.5 FC loss is really just under 3ppm per day, which is more reasonable for the spring.

The Overnight Chlorine Loss Test proves the water healthy or in need of a slam. I wondered about my own the other day and jumped on the OCLT.

Test last night @7:20 was 2.0FC. I added about 1/4 jug and waited til 8:36pm and it tested 3.5. I tested again this morning at 7:36am and it said 3.5FC and 0CC

Ok GREAT. Get that FC up and pronto. You're losing about 3ppm right now, and some wiggle room never hurt anyone so dose at least 4ppm over minimum.
