My pH was 8.0 prior to adding 3drops of R-0005. And after going over my notes that I took, my FC is 5.0 and CC is 0.5 (forgot that I only used 10 ml for that testing).
I am using bleach for the chlorinating. I bought the 22 lb dichlor that was recommended on here. Haven't used it yet,as it just arrived late yesterday.
