    Default Re: Will this work?

    So its been a few days of adding borax and chlorine through the skimmer. I also would add extra chlorine when the FC was below 2. This morning I tested, and for the first time the FC was higher than the CC. Here is what I had:
    -FC=5.2
    -CC=1
    -PH=7.0
    -Alkalinity=130
    The pool is slowly becoming less cloudy, but the color seems the same. Still has a sea foam blue-green color, but I can see the entire shallow end for the first time today. I can also see deeper into the deep end, but not to the floor yet. The orange-rusty color keeps coming back on my steps. Usually after a day or 2. Should I continue with the routine I have been doing, or do you suggest anything different? Thanks for your help.
