Re: New Intex above ground owner - Psuedomonas?
I checked with the OTO and it's still dark yellow at around 5 and the test strip was at 5(not as dark as it has been). Should I use bleach tonight since I skipped last night? I put a couple of trichlor pucks in the floater cause the one that was left was almost dissolved and I figured I lost a little CYA with the slight drain my husband had to do cause of he rain the other day. I think I may have some mustard algae too cause I was reading about it and it sounds like the stuff I was vacuuming off the pool floor everyday before I got the rash(looked like dirt, floated up off the floor like dirt too). I was vacuuming every day before we would swim and it would be back in the wrinkles and creases of the liner the next morning every time. I have yet to vacuum since then(it's been a week) since I didn't know if I should get in the pool yet. I never vacuum from outside of the pool cause I like to see what I'm doing and make sure I get it all up. I'm waiting for the brush I ordered to get here, the vacuum I use has some bristles, but I know I need a dedicated brush.
Should I put bleach in tonight or are my chlorine levels probably ok?
