Slam in progress FC still way low

[Mcaveman]

Started a new thread for the slam.
42000 gallons swg

i added 9 jugs of 128 oz 10% which should have taken me to atleast 20 , I have a FC of 7 I waited 30 minutes after adding to retest , I have the pump running at 3000.

add more bleach? Or wait and re test

And CC now reads 3 up from .5

Also the water did not turn nearly as green when I added the 10% from Walmart compared to the Aldo 6%

More information pre-SLAM in this thread Do I need to shock?

I believe from your other thread (I put a link to it in your first post of this thread) that you were testing for ammonia.

If the '9' jugs raised your FC to 10 ppm at 9AM, and you tested 7ppm FC 30 minutes later, then you do not have an ammonia issue.

Continue on with Pat's instructions.

Take care.
