My first test... questions

25-30ppm on the CYA sounds about right and using a white towel as a background to check pH is just fine.

Well here is what I got:

CYA: 25
PH: 7.3
FC: 0.8
CC: 0.6
TA: 110
CH: 180

I know I need to get my chlorine up so I added a bottle of 6% bleach tonight (1.42 gallons). I'll retest in the morning and post results. Anything else I should do based on those numbers? Should I add stabilizer? 25 is kinda low isn't it?

Yes, stabilizer of 25 is kinda low. I think you'll do better at 40-50ppm. Go ahead and add another 5lbs of CYA.
