Just wanted to say thanks.

We just bought a new home with a pool back in May, and in the process of opening and cleaning, the pool turned a lovely shade of sour apple. :alien:

So I did what any pool newbie would do. Went to the pool store and blindly dumped a bunch of chemicals into my pool. I'm sure you can all guess how that went.

There were times when I got really fustrated. There were times I wanted to give up. But I knew there had to be a way.
SO, I did my research on my own. All signs pointed to TFP.
Lurked on this forum for about 2 weeks. Learned about SLAM. Bought a Taylor test kit. Followed the steps. Understood the value of POP.

A week later, my pool went from sour apple to crystal clear.
I would not have achieved this without you all and your expertise.

I still look at the before/after pics my wife took (which I will provide soon) and just kinda shake my head and smile.
What a feeling...
