algae help

Just got home from Leslies again.
fc--------5
tc-------5
ph------7.4
alk-----120
ch-----230
cya-----30
Bought a big DPD test kit. The cL readings above are not accurate because they are the max readings she can read. She did not bother to dilute the sample. I tested FC to 15ppm with my new test kit. I did not test TC. Leslies says my phosphates are high and sold me a 36 dollar bottle of Phos free. Should I use it or take it back? I also got more CYA but will wait until after shocking cycle is complete before adding more to get to CYA of 80.

Take the Phos free back. You don't need it.

I already did. I took it back after reading some of the other posts about it. I printed some of them for the Leslies lady. She was not impressed. Still shocking!. Although I did accidentally let the level drop to 7.5 today, I immediately added more bleach.

It all seemed to work. All the algae appears to be gone. I followed the direction here as best I could. I alsc cleared up all my rust stains with absorbic acid and used metal free to get rid of the metal. Thanks for all the help!

Never tell the pool store you cleared your pool with bleach:eek: They will send the paddy wagon out for you:D
