Absolutely go with chlorine. Don't let anybody talk you into using baquacil. Go and read some of the threads in the PHMB part of the forum where people are desperately converting away from baq. Read the "stickies" in the "using chlorine and chlorinating chemicals" forum and in the "testing and adjusting pool water chemistry" forum. They will give you lots of info about getting started. Also read through a lot of the other posts on this forum and read at the sister site www.poolsolutions.com as there is plenty of good info there as well. Then, post back with any questions that haven't already been answered in all of your reading. Welcome to the forum!
BTW - I'm going to move your post into a more appropriate place on the forum. The forum you posted in is for questions about how to use the forum itself rather than for chemistry or start up questions.
