    Ok.

    + CYA>100 => keep your chlorine at 7 ppm or above.

    + Do NOT add any alkalinity plus or calcium hardness increase type products.

    + Give us an inventory on what chemicals you have left. I assume you have, or will return the tabs. You can use the 4n1, but because of the alum you may want to add it via your skimmer. Just make 110% sure that there are NO tabs in the skimmer, a feeder or anywhere else where the shock can touch them. Just make sure your chlorine stays above 7 ppm.

    + Do you have access to pool store liquid chlorine (commercial bleach) or cal hypo in a 50 or 100lb container?

    By the way, having a CC reading of 0 is good! That is what you want!
