Help with green pool and numbers
Hi! My husband pulled back the pool cover this week and found a couple of hundred tadpoles who had taken up residence in the pool, so we decided now would be a GREAT time to go ahead and open the pool.
Anyways, I have forgotten nearly everything I learned last year so could you help me figure out the best plan of attack? My pool stats are in my siggy.
The pool is a little on the green side, but the debris was fairly settled. We jumped the gun and added bleach already. I also gave it a good brushing. Our filter is running as well.
Here are my readings tonight, 3 hours after adding about 10 gallons of 6% bleach.
CYA- 70 (It was high at the end of the season last year.)
FC- 5.5 ppm
ph- 7 (could be a little lower?)
TA 70
So should I stop adding bleach and address the ph first?
TIA!
