UPDATE - Well it took about a week (with my hectic schedule of softball games with kids and work) but the bottom of my pool is visible again. Not crystal clear, but it will be soon with the help I've gotten here. Thanks again for all your help! Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

First time I've ever used MA and it worked perfectly!! Retested the pH and it's exactly 7.2. You're all lifesavers, thanks so much! Didn't bother with the CYA test, just went ahead and added the 123oz of liquid chlorine as per the pool calc to begin slamming. I'll post updates and thanks...

Perfect, I'll get that MA in there and get the pH down and start slamming this afternoon. How often should I brush during slam? A couple times a day? Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk

Great, thanks for the info. I'll run out and grab some MA now and get that in there to work on the pH level. How long should I wait to retest for an accurate CYA and pH reading? Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk
