Bromine??

[jazz&stitches]

Can anyone tell me what "bromine" is and what the levels should be?
I couldn't find bromine listed on the definitions or the pool calculator...
I'm loving the BBB method of caring for my pool ... and have told many of my friends.
Thank you so much for making this available...

Bormine is an alternative to chlorine, that is normally only used in spas. In a chlorine pool you don't want there to be any bromine in the pool. Some of the common chlorine tests will report both chlorine levels and bromine levels. The test will actually detect either one, and you should only pay attention to the reported level of the chemical you are actually using and ignore the other one.

Thank you for answering me so quickly!
I'm using chlorine so I will ignore the other!

Thanks again!
