    Okay, so at 10 p.m. our FC was 13 ppm (last night). This morning at 7:45 a.m. it was 12 ppm. We only lost 1 ppm last night. This is good, right?
    I think we are going to add the polyquat now.

    yes, that's much, much better!! I would think that today's loss will be less than was reported yesterday, too--but testing won't bear that out because the Polyquat will probably drop your chlorine a bit.
