Got an algae bloom and had some Cal-hypo granulated shock sitting around. I dissolved thouroughly in hot water and added to the pool. My CH is around 230 and I have a fiberglass pool. not too worried about the calicum going up much. My plan is to continue the SLAM with liquid chlorine but didn't have enough to get started which is why I added the Cal-hypo first

My question, I read after added the cal-hypo I read somewhere that this type of shock can damage/bleach the fiberglass. Any truth to this if it is completely dissolved before adding ?
