You need a center mounted gauge like This instead of the bottom mounted type you currently have anyway.

I put 70 oz in from the pool bleach from walmart from last year. I have to use them up. They were stored in the box in my garage. So i used a little more than 1/2 gallon. Will test tomorrow and move forward from the results then

You could have put the whole gallon if you wanted. It’s probably degraded a bit.
Do u really think i need to slam. I was hoping to not go thru all thst work. I am exhausted. Hopefully my test results will be such that some chlorine and whatever else will do the trick.
I have like 7 gallons left over from last year. How bad can they be
They're probably half strength. Test for your baseline, pour a whole gallon in and test 15 mins later.

They don’t go bad - just may not be as strong as listed on the bottle. Use one & see where it gets you on the fc test compared to what
PoolMath says it should do.
It is perfectly fine to use them up. You just have to test afterwards
Hey good sunday morning. Just did tests. Forgot to do combined chloramines but did the rest.
TA. 80
CYA. 25
FC. 4.5.
What do u guys think?? Going out with my beautiful grandchildren soon so i will try some pool math and leave for the day. What is ur best suggestion. Based on my numbers. I think it is much better than last year
TA. 80
CYA. 25
FC. 4.5.

It's great you more or less held FC overnight.
Use muriatic acid to lower the PH per pool math.
I'd add 10 ppm CYA. 30 wasn't cutting it for me a couple weeks ago. The UV has been unusually high by us.
Then dose FC daily per the 40 CYA. Start high because you're not sure what it is yet.

Thats it guys. Not sure i did pool math correct. Need a brush up course. Can u tell me where to find that and how much it will tell me to add based on my FC and CYA and Ph and TA. I appreciate u guys
Can u tell me how to to this again. Based on a 40 CYA how much chlorine i should add snd how much muriatic acid. Even though my Ph is only8?
I put in 21 oz of bleach because i plugged in my 4.5 FC and 6 as target??? Not sure what i am doing. Like i said my brain went blank from last year. Really fo need a refresher course to understand what to do and why and quickly before i mess things up
There is a glitch with android where the keyboard blocks the chemical addition info area towards the bottom. Press 'done' to minimize the keyboard and see the area underneath it.
Only add 10 CYA though, not 20.
That's OK. It takes a minute to get your pool sea legs back.Like i said my brain went blank from last year. Really fo need a refresher course to understand what to do and why and quickly before i mess things up
Dose to 8 FC everyday for now until you see several days respond the same to know what your current daily loss is. So if you find a 5.5, add 2.5. (Etc).
You will have to test after to confirm while the old bleach lasts. Once you're using this years supply, you can just trust its good.
So put in my value and put in target value of 8. But the real target for FC is usually lower correct? How about my pH and TA and CYA. Any additions there? I think everything looks pretty good especially my CYA as compared to last start year
Yes. You are sitting PRETTY compared to last year.
Lower the PH to 7.6 with muriatic acid
Add 10 ppm granular CYA, soaking in a sock.
The TA is fine.
Repenish FC dialy back to 8.
Poolmath will tell you all, you were doing it right except the # pad blocking the screen. Press done and it will tell you the rest.
