Okay I just heard from the pool store that 90 ALK is good for my pool and I thought it was suppose to be 120. Toooo late I added 4 1 lb boxes of baking soda Anyways I was also told by the pool store to add only 1 pint of acid in my 24' round pool which is I think about 17,000 gallons . Does that sound like enough . Thank you so much for the replies . Also if I shock my pool will it kill the bugs I have living in there also ?
