    Great! Thank you for the help so far. I just checked the pool after adding the bleach around 11am CT and the color of the pool went from cloudy dark green to cloudy light blue. Chlorine levels are currently above 10ppm.

    Bought some extra bleach just in case for later.

    Good deal. Test the chlorine again this evening and add enough bleach to shock it back up!
