FAS/DPD test just showed up! I tried a quick test and could not get the pink go back to clear 70+ drops (thinking that's bad sign and I'm an idiot). ****! I'm going try another. I'll sit down, take my time and re-post shortly.
**I HAVE 7 DAYS to get water in good shape. Looking for advice!

Take your time and re test in a little while. Don't add any bleach in the meantime.
With that much FC try using only 5ml of water and count each drop as 1 FC. If it is over 35 with your low CYA level then you will have to hope for some sunny days ahead to help burn it off quickly.

Told ya' not to just up and throw a chlorine grenade at it!
There's a method to our madness.....or is that the other way around?

Thanks - but honestly you told me after the fact. That doesn't really help.

Tried a second test. Stopped at 100 drops - still pink. Not worth wasting any more. I read somewhere that you really couldn't add too much shock. Yes, I know now that was stupid. Not sure what to do now.
Guess I'll go cut the grass.
I actually thought of that after the OTO results - so already done. Thanks though

Yep. Mix of sun and clouds today. With some showers (not a wash out). Supposed to be nothing but sun for the week starting Tuesday. Thanks!
EEKS! Well...here's hoping for some quick burn off. With it that high and low CYA it should come down quickly. It's got a long way to go though. Thank God you got that FAS/DPD in!
Hopefully everything will be ok.

This is a plaster pool right?
If so...Just let it ride is about all you can do. If there is much going on in the pool organic wise, you'll see it fall back down. Brushing as suggested is a good idea. Also, can you Bypass the heater? If so, I would.

Hurry and get that lawn mowed. Rain is headed your way. It has been raining in my area for about an hour and it is headed your way.
To be honest, I'm not quite sure. This is probably a dumb question - but how can you tell? Are you talking about the pool or the liner? I'm new to this - sorry. I think it's poured.

Totally agree. Thank you both!!

Ha - done just in time!
Please take a picture and post it up if you don't mind. Run another FC and see how far you go this time.
Now I catch myself waiting for your results!

Generally you can spot a vinyl lined pool by the fake tiling or decoration around the walls and surface of the pool. But...that said, I've seen pics on here that are very confusing becuase the pool was altered in some way to mix together different pool elements...so it could be cement with fiberglass or vinyl or whoknowswhat? Does your pool have an obviously fake printed tile work on the edge by the coping?
On May 13 in your other thread, I told you to add one bottle of bleach per day ... so you were warned.
