    HI.

    I am up early to test the pool before the sun comes up.

    Last night brought pool up to FC 4

    This morning tested the same FC 4

    So not losing anything overnight. I guess I will take Carls advice and run the sand with DE. Like I said I thought the Cartridge filters better then the sand from what I read. 10 micron cart vs 30 micron sand. Plus its a brand new cart.

    I am still looking at info on the Jacks magik pink stuff I put in. I put the whole bottle in, but this was last week sometime. Ben or Carl said I would know if I overdosed. They did not specify what would actually happen.

    I have not used the blue clarifier since the pool was real cloudy. I wonder if I overdosed with that. I think ben said you get into a ionic hell if you use too much. Does that burn off though?


    I will also go back and read the 100 reasons for a cloudy pool. Possibly I will pick something out.

    Like I said, no big deal. Just trying to get the clear depth. You may not even notice to pool has a slight cloud. My wife says clear. My kids say cloudy. I say both...LOL. Its clear but cloudy..... Ha ha.
