I see where the SLAM chart is and I have read a few times that if there is mustard algae there is a further process. can you please drop a link to it here?

I would like to read up on it. and hope I never need it.

Thanks
 
See here for the procedure:


The SLAM is completed first, then FC is brought up for 24 hours to mustard shock level, and EVERYTHING is scrubbed down as thoroughly as you possibly can while the water is at that level.

Here's the chart to show the levels to use:

Thanks so after the SLAM with a pool at a CYA of 70 you would take FC to 40.5 or 10.5 for 24 hrs ?
 
You do the SLAM with your FC target being 28, then after you pass the SLAM (no visible algae, pass on the OCLT, CC at 0.5 or less), you raise it up to 40.5 for 24 hours and scrub the Crud out of everything.
