Hey Watermom and others-

Added 5 gals of chlorine this afternoon to bring my cl up to around 15. I think it is- I added per the bleach calculator. I also added 1 gal muratic acid last night due to the 8.0 ph. This morning my ph was a dark orange color- mid 7's I believe. I measured ph a few minutes ago and it was back up to 8

What's going on? I know saltwater pools tend to make ph rise, but that's way too high. I still can't see the drains very well-cloudy blue- very little algea on liner on bottom- re-swept after adding the bleach.

I will run pump 24/7 until clear- I hope soon! In the meantime, I can't add a gallon of acid everyday- $150 month!

I've seen picts of horrible algae- mine was very minimal- slippery bottom, light coating. But the cloudy water is killing me! I will give it a couple of days, but help with the ph!
