City water. I checked and there is nothing about iron being in the water but it does contain small amounts of lead and copper. I've put a link to the 2022 city water report. https://www.ark.org/health/eng/ccr/189.pdf I'll definitely continue the SLAM for now. This isn't my first SLAM so I'm...

So I've been doing a slam since Saturday and it is going quite well. The water was a swamp due to just to many leaves and no cover. The water is clearing up still not finished as I can still see the bottom on the deep end. From just a few minutes ago: FC: 14.5 CC: 0 TA: 40 pH: 7.4 CH: 30 CYA...

I use Liquid Chlorine exclusively until Monday morning since I was going out of town and put a couple of Tricholor tabs in the skimmer to help keep the levels up while I was gone for 28 hours. I haven't been checking it since I thought I read on here it wasn't a big deal. The last time I...
