3. Go to Walmart, and get 8 boxes of 20 Mule Team borax. Begin adding them, 2 boxes at a time slowly, via the skimmer, with the pump on, spacing doses at least 4 hours apart. Quit when your pH reaches 7.6 - 7.8.

Do that.

• Then, once the pH is up, begin with 10# doses of cal hypo, each evening.
• Make 110% SURE that is your trichlor feeder is COMPLETELY empty, and add the cal hypo via the skimmer.
  (Cal hypo and trichlor react together in very bad ways!)
• Run your pump 24/7 if you are not already doing so.
• Clean your filter when pressures are 5-7 psi greater than the 'clean' pressure.
• Replace the gauge if it's broken.
