    Is your pool like a total swamp? 5 gallons of 15% should have added 43ppm of chlorine to your pool! (You may be bleaching your liner!) How much after this did you get a reading of 10ppm?

    No my water is just cloudy, could hardley see the drain cover in the deep end. Pool math told me that 2.5 gallons would have got me to 24ppm from 0 but after an hour I test and it had only gotten me to 10ppm. Pool math told me to add another 2.5 to get to 24 from 10 and it only made it to 15 after another hr. i put 2 more gallons of 8.25% in and an hour later I was at 17.5ppm so I added my last gallon of 8.25 and tested 12 hours later and I showed no FC at all.

    I'm not sure why you are here -- you already have a 6 page thread at TFP.

    Normally, I'd say pick one or the other, but it would appear you've already done that, and are just wasting both your time and ours here.
