I am going to do that today. Thank you so much for your help.

Lol oh ok. So just place the tablets on top of the spots? How long do I leave them there or will they dissolve?

Nothing fell in or stayed there. I am very on top of the care of this pool. I don’t believe it’s rebar either. When I get real close to it it looks like two of the pebbles are embedded in the finish and they are browning so possible metal got in the mix. Where do buy vitamin c tablets for a pool?

I had my pool refinished in April with a pebble finish. I have been on top of my chemistry using tf-100. Can someone tell me what these 2 brown marks are that are appearing on the bottom of my pool? thanks

Ok, I just checked my chlorine and it was at 9 so I should probably let that come down before bringing it up 3 correct?

My ph was 7.2 today...should I go lower?

Ok, so the shallow end is 15’X16’ with a depth of 38” sloping deeper and the deep end is 15’X12’ with a depth of 5’ sloping up thanks

Also, I am trying to get a more accurate measure on how many gallons this pool is. I have looked at pool math and not sure what shape to call the pool. I have a shallow end at 3 ft and deep at 5 feet....I have attached a picture. Should I measure the shallow end, the deep end and then add them...

Thanks for all the info. So Kim, do you add chlorine everyday even when your chl tests are within a acceptable range? I think I am pretty close to having my head wrapped around this whole thing...just trying to figure out the chlorine

Ok. What is the chemical that will bump up the cya

Ok, so I just did a full test with the accurate chlorine test. Results: Chl: 8 PH: 7.2 TA: 50 CH: 350 CYA: 20 as of now I still have pucks in the skimmer. I would like to switch to using the liquid chlorine jugs. How often does that get added? Should I not use those pucks at all? Or just if I’m...

ok perfect. I will do that tomorrow. So, is this the only test I should be doing for chlorine?

Yes, so is there a test for the FC and the combined chlorine? Which is the one done with the same container as PH?
