I failed first slam attempt. Used 3,630 oz over 3 days. Then fell bad sick on 12th and 13th. In which time it digressed back to swamp.
Started 2nd attempt yesterday. I checked it and adjusted 15 times in 24 hours. 18th hour I let it fall below shock @ 7 FC. By this time it went dark green swamp death smelling to cloudy sky blue whites fresh out of the wash.
It fell to 5 FC over the next 4 hours while I was restocking. Took forever due to wife's agenda. Lifted it upto 25 FC, suspect it will stay at shock all night (13 - 20ppm).
I logged everything, and it's looking good. Lost 18 ppm in 1st hour, evolved too losing 2 ppm over 4 hours.
Im using DPD test kit, but have R-0870 and R-0871 on order.
Think I will need DE additive for filtering soon. Didnt manage to remove light today, would bet algae patch hiding behind it.
Having poured so much bleach, I grew certain of one draw back using it. Jugs have high variability in "true" concentration. I noticed this in color, smell, and in test data. Im tempted to look up decipher in batch numbers.
