Got it! Thank you!

Unfortunately the FC drops after an hour, it’s already down to 3 again. I suppose I should focus on the ph first?

Yes, that’s the one. I do the 25ml sample, and it takes 9 drops to turn clear. I fully expected that result since I had full blooming algae when I opened.

This is with 4 drops instead of 5. Pump has been running since yesterday morning when I opened. FC will only hold at 5 for a a couple hours so I know I need to SLAM but thought I needed ph at 7.2 before doing that. Also I see I forgot to post CYA which is 0.

Current readings using FAS-DPD: FC- 5 CC - 0 Ph - purple TA - was 20 yesterday, now 60 Salt - 2600

TA is 20

Thank you for that! I forgot to mention that I did treat the ph last night as if the ph was 8 and added the 2 oz of muriatic acid and nothing changed this morning. Should I do it again?

Just opened pool yesterday and ph is purple! I get no result when I check FC, no color change, but my husband dumped a gallon of bleach in the pool when we opened it (it was totally green). Pool is 18x9 Intex above ground with SWG and sand pump (4500 gal). Not sure where to go from here since I...

With temps rising I want to get a jump on opening our 9x18 above ground Intex pool. When I closed it we drained the water below the pump line and put a mesh cover on top. This weekend I noticed the water was turning green. Should I refill the water (currently 2/3 full) and then SLAM or SLAM...

FC dropped from 22 last night to 19 this morning. Water was clear, then I vacuumed and it got cloudy with a super light green tint. I am continuing the SLAM this morning and bringing the FC to 28 (as recommended through the app). Still CC is 0. So I just keep SLAM until the ONLT passes...

Absolutely! Will check first thing in morning
