First time using Bleach last fall my CYA levels were over 200 from years of using pool store pucks so I drained over 3/4 of the pool before closing. I opened it a few day ago and it had a decent amount of algae which appears to be gone now and my new CYA level is around 40. I installed a new VS Pump which is really cool but I had to rewire and replumb a lot of PVC. My old electric was several inches too short so I had to start over and run 12 ft of new line always fun. Anyways back to the water, it is now cloudy and a little green, I have added 12 jugs of Clorox 8.5%, PH is 7.4 Alkalinity is around 140 so those numbers are good. I'm getting so weird readings on my test kit. Around 16 for Chlorine but my test strips that test the FC chlorine aren't reading anything. I am guessing I still need to add more bleach. I took a sample up to the pool store just to see what their numbers were and they said my total Cholrine was 15 and FC was 1.2. My other test numbers matched theirs and they suggested I buy something called CLC 3 which is a granular shock and then potassium peroxymono to clear up the cloudiness. I didn't buy anything and wanted to consult the folks here and see what I needed to do to bring the FC up and get ride of the cloudiness
