    Thanks Watermom.

    CC has been holding steady @ 0 -.5 for the last week. I'll go ahead and let it drop and start the regimen of maintaining the 3-6ppm range like you said above.

    And, be careful with swimmers in cloudy water -- especially in a deep end.

    Did you mean this in terms of making sure I can see them and know that they are safe? If so, that is no problem. The water is completely clear enough for good visibility and safety.

    Yes, that's what Watermom meant--in very cloudy water it's hard to tell sometimes if somebody's in trouble. If you can see them clearly, that's great!!

    The pool looks fantastic. Now...be diligent about spending a few minutes testing everyday, keep your chlorine where it needs to be, and enjoy the rest of your swimming season!
