    Jeff,

    I know it's not your question, but you need chlorine in your pool. You should be somewhere around 4-7ppm constantly.

    If your CC tests at 1.0 or greater in the future, you'll need about 16-18ppm for a successful shock.

    I don't know a thing about acceptable copper levels but I am curious as well....just can't help.

    I think your ALK level is fine - I think 90-120 is normal??? Someone can verify. The copper can precipitate out at high chlorine levels (like when you shock - which looks like you need to with the CC reading). Try Jacks Magic before you shock to sequester the metals.
