    Thanks Watermom.

    In keeping the chlorine level at 5-10 ppm, how would you test for that because the OTO kit doesn't read that high (I thought I would save on the Taylor reagents and do the daily testing with the OTO kit)? Would I just use the test for the free chlorine in the Taylor test kit?
    I will get the borax in tomorrow to target the pH at 7.4

    Thanks,
    Greg

    You really would need to use your Taylor K-2006 kit to test chlorine levels higher than 5ppm. But, with CYA of 65, you might find that you don't need to test every day. Every other day might work as long as you don't drop below 5ppm by then.
