Any one have an old pool?

What brand do you use and where do you order? Pool stores are too much and sams and lowes stuff sucks I think

I like Zapit 73% if I can get a good deal on it, or Doheny's.  I use google shopping and go with the good deals that pop up as long as I feel the distributor is legit. I'll use In The Swim, too.

What's your PH?  Floc seems to work better with a slightly higher ph.  Or maybe you needed to let it settle another 24 hours?  I haven't even taken the cover off of mine yet.  Letting the tree frogs have their babies first.

Ph is 7.6-7.8ish it's a bit clearer today

5 weeks down and it's still swimmable! I have to stay on it ALL THE TIME and it blows through shock like nobodies business. When I have it replastered next year I'm going to have to get the main drain fixed and add a second skimmer. I have to vacuum to waste weekly then refill and shock the poo out of it because the current single skimmer on 45000 gallons cannot keep it remotely clean

Absolutely. With one over-worked skimmer, it's allowing dirty water in the pool longer, which just exponentially exacerbates the issue, which is why you're having to stay on top of it. Adding a second skimmer will get the crap out quicker, allowing it less time to make things worse.

I might also recommend one of the cordless vacuums that cruises the pool, too.

Yeah I had a dolphin but it stopped working. It also never really got the fine particles out which is what I struggle with anyway.  Still blue today but the shock I ordered won't be here till Saturday so hopefully it stays good at least 2 more days. I'm at 72 pounds of shock in 6 weeks lol but when it got a bit green I did go through 20 pounds getting it back. My daughter loves to get in every single day so it's definitely worth all the hassle.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
