ok, so yesterday i've added anther quart of bleach, tested in the few hours and the chlorine level was at around 10ppm. This mornng checked and slime is just about all gone - Yey!!!!

You guys rock.

just now i picked up the HTH-6 6way kit from Walmart, i will test both my pool water, my tap water and will post results as well as the list of all chemicals that i currently have on hand.

btw, i've filled out the PF pool Chart - entry line 239.

Thank you all!!!
