FC was at 8 last night when i tested, ph was 7.4.
i put in 3 * 1.42gl * 6% bleach (~10pm)
i tested at 6am this morning, and the fc was at 20.
i did not add any chlorine today.
i am going to ask my wife to test this morning. if the fc goes down, then i will ask her to dump more chlorine in there.

if i take a sample out, it is clear, but a little cloudy. to look at the pool, the water is aqua. there is still a little bit of white slightly foaming color on top of the pool. i think this is a result of putting so much bleach in there, and am not tremendously worried.

one other thing regarding the bleach. i bought walmart bleach last night, as opposed to chlorox. any difference to the pool? they both say 6% chlorine. i can go to bjs, and get chlorox for around the same price. it is a bit more work, but if it made a material difference, i would do it.
