ok... ran my Walmart test kit.

Please note - on Sunday I put 2 cups of the ProCare stuff in.

Chlorine/Bromine test = ORANGE (off the chart - the chart ended at yellow - my color was almost like a peach orange)

Alkalinity = 330ppm total alklinity as calcium carbonate
pH = 7.5
Hardness = my water didn't turn red as the test said it should.
CYA = 30ppm - the solution never got cloudy enough to hide the black dot.

Hope that tells you guys something - cuz it means nothing to me right now.

Thanks for your help!
