Hey everyone,
I have a new salt water plaster pool that I need help on. i am now 16 days in from water and 9 days of the pump working. For the first 10 or so days no chemicals were added due to delays with electrical and as the builder passed off to a pool cleaning guy to maintain the chemicals. we have brushed twice a day since the water was in.
I am now testing chemicals as I have not been comfortable where we are. the pool guy added chlorine Thursday but when I tested Thursday night there was not a trace. the water is clear.
this was an acid startup as the plaster guys used multiple gallons of acid as they finished and they did use a sequestrate.

what order chemicals should I add. I know I will need chlorine and acid, and presumably cya.
