So after 10 days and 25 gallons of bleach, my pool is a cloudy blue-ish with about 12" of visibility.
Here's my dilemma. Back on April 4th, CYA measured at 50 along with pH 7.2, TA 90, and no chlorine, and the pool was very green. At that time I had added at least three bags of Chlorox shock and two 3" tablets. Since then CYA has consistently tested at 0.
Because of those results I used the one CYA of 50 and aimed for a SLAM FC of 20 which is very conveniently about a gallon.
Today I let FC drift back down to 0 and retested CYA. Results are still clear like water. pH is still 7.2. I do not want to add any more CYA because we are in severe water restrictions so draining and replacing is not an option.
The good news is that CC is now 1-1.5.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
