Well, I drained about a fourth of the water out of the pool and refilled with city water...went to check the CYA level and I didn't have enough reagent. The dip test though looks like it has come down a good amount. It's not down to 50, but it looks to at least be below 100 now. I will let you know all of the readings when I get some more reagent.

When I go to get more reagent, I was going to look for some un-stabilized chlorine and/or shock. I thought about the bleach, but it just seems more conviniant to get the dry form in a bucket instead of having 50 gallons of bleach. What should I be looking for?

Thanks again for everyone's help. I finally feel confident in what I am doing with the pool thanks to you guys and gals.

P.S. I know I need to order the Taylor testing kit. We have to replace our diving board, too, and we were hoping to order both from the same place to save on shipping.
