Re: Rookie pool owner--so confused, so many questions!!
I added almost 2lbs CYA last night along with 10oz of 48% cal hypo shock. The pool looks better today--definitely less growth. The water, for the most part, is pretty clear with bits of algae growing along bottom. I just vacuumed it and looks fairly decent, considering. It is a tad cloudy, but, then again I did just vacuum it.
The test strips (I know, I know...useless but all I have right now until I get the kit in the mail) now shows high FC (opposed to yesterday it said there was NONE)
Adding--before yesterday I have never added CYA to the pool so whats in there is just what I added last night.
