I added 5 gal liquid (10%) chlorine, and the water cleared up overnight; however my test kit (taylor k2006) indicates no free chlorine.
I took sample to Leslies and they show .13 ppm, and ph 8 and 1846 ppb phosphates along with .5 ppm copper. I'm attaching their 3 page report
They recommend a multitude of chemicals and I'm a bit skeptical based on previous opinions from TFP.

Thanks for any suggestions,
Norm

What do your test results look like? We have much more faith in those than the “experts” at Leslie’s.
 
I didn't test beyond chlorine and PH. I don't get any reading for chlorine, and as nearly as I can color match, ph is 7.6 compared to 8 in Leslies test.
What I'm trying to understand is where did the 5 gallons of chlorine disappear to.
