Re: Morning after our first attempt at the shock process
what I exactly said was "The only thing I have to add, can't say that I've seen it mentioned. The shock process itself will not make "the thing" on the bottom just disappear. I think you should vacuum or at the very least brush it and if it re-settles to the bottom its dirt and needs to be vacuumed. This is best done while the chlorine is at shock level."
What I was trying to say in more simple terms was I thought it would be best to do the brushing or vacuuming before she lets the chlorine fall to normal levels. If its algae, you want high chlorine to attack it when it gets stirred up, if its just dirt/sand, no big deal since she was doing the shock process anyways. So am I giving bad advice then? I only got in this thread to help clear her confusion between "bleach" and "liquid chlorine"
If you check your other topic I had posted a way to compare prices even for different size and different strengths. As long as I wrote it in a way that makes sense to you its pretty easy.
