CDC guidelines for loose poop (since it disintegraged I think it applies) is 8 hours at 20 ppm FC with filter running then change filter media if you can't backwash.

Re: Animal Poo and How Long to Wait
Hi, just looking for an update on if your FC stayed high all night.
( sorry about my incorrect suggestion, glad the pool gods knew the right thing to do... learning everyday here)
Off Topic:
Hope your pool party can go on as planed...
Did you remind your guests to bring float toys & PFDs for their kids?
I had a pool party for my kids recently, mostly ages two through four, and although I suggested on the invitation that they bring their favorite floatation devices, not one family brought anything... & none of the kids could swim ( & a bunch of the parents couldn't too)
Good thing I had stocked up on a bunch of types of them... every one of our floatation devices was in use ( a good bakers dozen at least & proabably could have used another three)

Yeah, FC stayed up all night. CC still 0. Backwashed DE filter 7a this morning.
