    It's the picture. From closer you can see the bottom of the pool. You have to be afraid of chlorine. Ruined some of my clothes😂

    This is what I found online Risks of Over-Chlorination While slightly higher-than-normal levels of chlorine in your pool are harmless, exposure to an over-chlorinated pool can have adverse effects on your health and well-being. Excess chlorine can alter the pH level of the water in the pool...

    Going to stop using the PUCKS and single packaged shock powder.. .Only use liquid chlorine or bleach.. Found a store near me Ocean state job lot that sells 1 gallon for $3. You are right about the low FC compare to CYA. I just added more chlorine to raise it. I still see white stuff in some...

    @mknauss here are my numbers during the SLAM FC 10.5 Ch 225ppm CYA 40 Water still little cloudy. I can see the drain at the deep end. Should I add chemical to increase my CH?

    During SLAM process, how often should backwash my DE filter? And when do backwash do I add more DE(80%) during SLAM? I am also running the robot around 3 to 4 times a day. I believe each robot cycle runs for about 2 hours. Is brushing still ncessary?

    Can I use this instead of liquid chlorine for shock? Pour in about three packs and brush the walls and floor. Keep the pump running until pool gets clear. Will that work?

    Numbers are from today evening. What am I doing wrong? I had dumped 5 gallon liquid chlorine and also use 3 inch pucks to chlorinate. My CH and TA are low as well. Do I need to do the SLAM process or can I add something specific? Cl 1 Ph7.2 FC 1 5 ppm Cc 1 ppm Ch 175 TA 70 CYA 30
