I don't have a good way to remove/add water. I will remove the pucks. Shouldn't I raise the ph and TA? Yes. Use soda ash or borax I still don't understand that before I had no CYA When did you have 0ppm?; I added in 4 lbs at a time; waited a week in between until I finally got it to 70-80 range. Why so high? Recommended levels are 30-50ppm for non-SWG pools I did use the hth super shock: I put in 6 bags at once. That is cal-hypo and adds calcium and may cloud the water Still couldn't get the FC to come up to 10 as you recommend. I can't seem to get it above 1. I've been using the 121 FL oz (1gal) of bleach from walmart; they say conc 8.50%. Then you needed to use more bleach as something was consuming it What is a normal amount of this type of bleach that I should have to add daily once water is balanced? 2-3ppm per day which is about 22 oz of 8.25% per day ... AFTER the pool is cleared up I am getting tired of buying and lugging these jugs around. Can I buy a bucket of chlorine tabs from sams club? How do I tell if they will add cya? No. They ALL add CYA I thought I read somewhere on this forum that this brand, which is pool source I think, was okay to use. Not on this forum I do have an inline chlorinator that doesn't work very well and I run the pump 24/7 and put some pucks into the skimmer as long as pump is running all the time. I also have a floating puck also. Don't put pucks in skimmer, ever. And do not put them in the chlorinator or the floater unless your CYA level is reasonable and you are on vacation
