    I have a Taylor K-2006 on the way but right now I just have the more basic taylor tester.

    30k gallons
    Vinyl
    Dichlor granulated shock in 1lb bags
    I have been adding it each day in recommended dosage (3 lbs)
    unknown (my k-2006 kit is on it's way)
    Unknown
    I have added clarifier
    Sand filter

    Thanks for the reply. I'll have the pool store test water tomorrow for the missing info...
