We're really going to have to have a good set of current water testing results taken with a drops-based kit to be able to help. The kit we recommend is the Taylor K-2006 or 2006C which you can get through the test kit link in my signature. It is only available online so you need something to use in the meantime. See if your Walmart has an HTH 6-Way kit (not test strips) that you can get. If not, at the very least, pick up a cheap OTO/Phenol Red (yellow and red drops) kit to use.

Post your readings and tell us what kit you got. Also, please fill in your pools information into our pool chart as that makes it much easier for people here to help.
