    Default Re: Shocking a Bromine pool - can I use chlorine shock

    Yep, Carl was thinking of BaquaGoo. Unfortunately I don't know anything about bromine but my limited chemistry knowlege thinks you can just switch because Br and Cl are close in the periodic table and don't involve any other chemicals. ChemGeek will see this and chime in I'm sure.

    Edit: Don't do anything until you hear something more certain. What I said above is what I intuitavely think May also be totally wrong.
