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.

    • They're examples of denying reality. Here are some others: ,- Bryce is the worst QB in the NFL right now (no he isn't) - Bryce is the worst QB in NFL history (no he's not; that's stupid) - Well then Bryce is at least the the worst QB in the league over the last three years (nope, he's actually improved a lot since year one, which was a turbulent year anyway) - That's not true, he hasn't Improved one but since his rookie year (oh come on) 🙄 - Well, even if he did, we can't win with him (obviously we can) - Yeah but not unless everyone else is damn near perfect (think the game film from our wins this year would back that up?) - Even so, we won those games in spite of him (officially the stupidest argument available) And no, those are made up. You can find those quotes and other equally moronic statements in various threads around the board. I know some folks always need to characterize whatever they're against as the worst thing in existence. It's hyperbole, and it's hypersilly. Likewise, you've got some who are so absolutely emotional about it that even if you think Bryce isn't good enough (which I do) they'll still call you a stan if you don't agree to label him the lousiest passer in existence 🙄 It's just dumb, and it's not realistic. But on the flipside, here are some statements which are; - Bryce is indeed capable of both playing in, and winning, an NFL game. Not on a consistent level though, and consistency is huge. - He is also capable of completing mid-range and even some deep passes; hell, he threw a beauty this past Sunday  - Yes, he has improved over his rookie season and over last year. Arguing against that is disingenuous. - Believe it or not, other players are the roster do make mistakes in games also.  - And lastly, while I know it hurts some people's narrative and arguments, Bryce does indeed deserve credit for the winning games he's played in this season. ... Every single one of those statements is true. And since i acknowledge all that, I must be in favor of keeping him in place then Except I'm not 😕 ... Don't know of anyone who doesn't think he'll get the fifth year option. Not ready to guarantee anything beyond that, though. So bottom line: Yeah, Bryce is fully expected to be our quarterback through next year. If there were a logical, realistic path to acquire a more capable starter and transition Bryce to a backup I'd be elated, but that's a pipe dream. This where we're at  I don't **** it, you don't like it, others don't either. But here We are so let's make the best of it that we can.
    • What does it matter how fast the wrs are with Bryce he is not hitting them anyway
    • Let's be real. Signing Matt Kalil who was at the time inconsistent at best was always an extremely risky move and largely initiated by the fact he was related to one of our most prominent players Ryan Kalil. Memories get fuzzy the longer time passes I guess. Go watch some old Panthers games with Ted Ginn nearly losing us games. Then watch Cam Newton keep going back to him again and again and again. Then read all the Xavier Legette criticism while making excuses for Bryce being swept by rookie 2nd round pick Tyler Shough. Throwing TMac under the bus is just further proof how deranged the Bryce Young defense force has become. Bryce Young can barely compete in this gutter iteration of the NFC South. Let's see him take this WR core to the playoffs in an NFC South with Drew Brees and Matt Ryan
