By all means go with chlorine. My wife talked me into the baquicrap 3 yrs ago and believe me it has been nothing but a nightmare. Spent at least $3,000 on that junk and still had green jello for water. Finally drained it and cleaned the bottom and sides with power washer and vacuumed every once of water out then refilled and am now using the BBB method. Wife is still convinced the pool store is the only place to buy things but I figure if I'm the one taking care of the pool I will do it my way from now on. So, if everyone here is wrong and things turn out badly I sure hope someone out there has a place for me to hide in--preferably someplace in the rockies or hawaii.
