Congratulations, job well done, enjoy your pool!!!! Remember the rules for ending the slam

To slam the pool you need to have a recommended test kit, as Richard say it will cost you more, balancing a small pool takes more attention, I really will empty and start over

Oh, sorry for my mistake

You are not using the swg now? Right?

Hi there, you said you added stabilizer but you didn't say how much, there is a relationship between CYA and FC that you have to maintain http://www.troublefreepool.com/content/128-chlorine-cya-chart-slam-shock This chart will help you

Good post I will add to not put any stuff from the pool store, just bleach like great value from Wal-Mart, the regular one, one galón every night until you can post results from one of the recommended kits

A good post for you http://www.troublefreepool.com/threads/3913-Turning-Your-Green-Swamp-Back-into-a-Sparkling-Oasis
