    I have the 3 way kit from walmart, the 6 way was out of stock. I will hit it with the 10 gals, and borax

    The dilution method is explained in the link in my previous post called "testing without a good kit."

    Keep your chlorine between 3-6 with that CYA of 50. Your pH is ok at 7.8 but you don't want it any higher.
