I've got the Borax and bleach and did the fill up process according to the 7 day Simple Startup. I added bleach and Borax according to their instruction the first evening of pool was completely filled. I had seen a bit of algae and a water bug so I added extra bleach and Borax according to the instructions in the 7 day SS. Will take my first test (3 way drops I had previously purchased) in the morning and let you know what I find. Went to Sam's for Dichlor but they loaded up Chlorine Tablets instead. Will return and get the stabilized Chlorine tomorrow. (Darn it). Ordering K2006 tomorrow also. (Hope it isn't too expensive. Was shocked that the plain Chlorine Tabs were $80!!!) AAAAwwwk! Can I afford this? I'll find a way....Do they still make those little swim caps we used to wear in PE?
