So over the last week I had noticed that the deep end of my 16x32 pool had become a little murky, after testing it i realized the chlorine had gone now to almost nothing. I use a floater with three inch pucks to supply it. I refilled the floater and added a granular cal-hypo to try and quickly bring it back. I tried another shock the following night after seeing little improvement. I realize now that I may not have been adding enough to actually break through. I used the water treatment lab at my place of work to get a good test result today and realized my free chlorine was almost zero (.2) and my total had risen to almost 4. I'm wondering if I should add a non chlorine shock to bring the total chlorine down while just letting my floater slowly bring the FC back up, or if I should do another cal-hypo shock just stronger. (I added a little over 1kg the second shock and 700g the first)

Thanks!
