Ph still 6.8
Chlorine over 5 (maybe 6) after a gallon of bleach last night.
CYA was diluted as instructed and still did not come up to the "100" line---basically same as yesterday.

I was told at the Pool Store (sorry) that the "add-on" kits are no good, they don't carry them, they have a short shelf life, whatever..... So I will have to order one on-line or just buy the good one and be done with it. More later.

Water is clear.

Question: Borax is $5/box here and I have put in at least 10 so far. Is there a cheaper alternative?
