    Are we talking a silver dollar or a dime?[emoji41] No bubble burst here, I came here for honest feedback. I guess you could say my opinion is foggy, kind of like my water! Not used to seeing it this clean. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    I think I may be nearing completion of SLAM. Would love the feedback of the group. My FC just tested at 28. Yesterday I brought it to 31, but I think they may have been a premature decision. The pool looks clear, will get a second opinion from wife. Do I continue at SLAM level while doing this...

    Tested this morning at 5:30 and was right at my target shock FC level of 28. Just tested again and was at 20.5 [emoji33] That's a drastic drop. I have a question. I had a bit of a challenge with the CYA test and couldn't figure out exactly I could no longer see the dot. Thought it was between...

    I think I found the problem. If a pool is 15 x 30 3' -6' its average should be 4.5, on poolmath comes to 15,100. My pool is 15 x 30 3 1/2 -6', I put the average at 4.75 on pool math comes to 16,000. But if my shallow end is 3 1/2, it should be less than 16,000, otherwise known as 4.25, or...

    You know that's a great question on the shallow versus deep, never really looked at it, when the water doesn't look milky, and I can see the bottom ,I will have to take a look. That is the million dollar question, how it shot so high, I felt like I followed everything as it should have been. I...

    Just did a FC test, came in at 29.5. It seems like its coming more into range of where I should be. I'm just curious if I should do another CYA, will that test accurately during the SLAM process?

    These are what I used. I see 121 oz. is shy of a gallon, this is the number I entered on the calculator. My math right be wrong on the depth profile, that might help. I used a depth profile of 4.75. My pool is 3'6" in the shallow end and 6' in the deep end. Am I off? Thanks jbizzle for your...

    I'm assuming the gallon bottle that says the 8.25 would be correct, but maybe I'm missing something on that. Thanks for your feedback, I'm getting ready to do a test in a few minutes. - - - Updated - - - Thanks for your feedback!

    I woke up this morning and couldn't believe what i saw, once the sun was up anyways. My pool is coming back to life! My FC levels at both 5 and 7 am have been locked at 31. I really am not sure why they have stayed so high, I haven't added chlorine once. Later when it's warmer I will test...

    I decided to raise the water level just a bit as I was a hair below the water line. My 4:30 reading was at 32.5, much better. My question to the group is on the first night do you sleep or do you get up every couple of hours and check it?

    I added 4 cups of muriatic acid to bring the PH down. How long can I wait before I make my initial dose of bleach? According to pool math, I will add 5.3 gallons of bleach. Anything else to be aware of for now?

    Good morning friends in the fight against algae. My pool has been filling all night, and is getting closer to being filled, maybe another two hours. On bleach for the SLAM process, do you recommend going with the standard 6% or going with the 10% pool essentials chlorine?
