    Well Looks like I am on the same path as last year. I guess I am doing correct by checking every 2 hours and adding bleach to keep my levels at or above shock. [ Not necessary -- 1 or 2x per day is enough - PoolDoc ]

    I have the filter going on low 24/7. I vacuumed again today with the sand filter. I got very little. The pool is clean but cloudy. I then disconnected the sand filter and installed the cart, and am now running cart only on low.

    I am know raising my shock level to 15ppm. No higher. Since this year I have the kit to test this high, I wont be guessing. Last year I shocked too high and cause the iron to stain the liner. Thanks to Ben/pool doc that pink stuff worked.

    Anyway that's where I am at now. I guess this is day two. I started on the 16th in the pm. So tonight will be a whole 48 hours. Note: As I type this now I have currently used 10 gallons of bleach and nothing else. ( except that 1 lb of CYA)

    Here are current pics:
