btw i had to fish them out.

ewww!!

I know Watermom was fighting back waves of retch when she (heroically) answered you before.

Thanks, Dave. Thanks for noticing my heroism! (Watermom slithers away........ she is really a big wuss! Just ask Ben! )

not really just found out these opossoms aren't that bad ANYWAY pool is 5.0 ch. level but I'm taking your advice and keeping it high at least for a couple days maybe 3 or more, Thanks Dave and Watermom

Personally I'd just maintain normal CL levels (3-6 for a CYA level of 40) since they weren't in there very long. Perhaps I just have a higher ick factor tolerance.

Yeah I wasn't sure, kinda felt like Watermom yeech! but when my pool store said 3 cases I said NO WAY. After I super shocked it to 5.0 I 'm sure it will be fine. I'm going to keep it high for at least a week, and beside we wont be swimming for 2 weeks anyway

With a CYA of 40, chlorine of 5ppm is not at shock level. Shock level would be 15ppm. See the Best Guess Chart here for the connection between CYA and chlorine. http://pool9.net/cl-cya/

thanks Watermom, more chlorine needed
