Just got this little thing and need some advice on chlorine

Its 540Gal maxed and I'd like to add some chlorine so I'm not constantly having to refill and clean, but it seems like most options are for much, much bigger (10,000Gal).

Does anyone else have anything smaller like this and what do you use?

Update: Kids decorated a disc for dad's birthday

Thanks all! He absolutely loved it and it turned out perfectly

What's the best way for kids (ages 3 to 6) to decorate a disc for display only? I'm thinking maybe acrylic paint markers + some sort of sealant spray? Any suggestions or advice? He has discs he used to play with often and we won't be touching those, obviously, and he mentioned wanting to get back into it so the kids wanna offer some love and encouragement.

6.5yo (AuDHD) has become obsessed with always winning or coming in first in comparison to siblings, but especially MiddleChild(5yo). Now Middle won't stop doing it and they're constantly screaming at each other over who wins and who loses and who is lucky and who isn't.

We do a lot of cooperating together and also practice being a sore winner and a sore loser [they're great with actual games & competition, it's just this weird gray area that is less typical when they fight], but this isn't about games or sports or something that you could possibly even be an actual winner/loser in. It's almost always instigated by Eldest (haha you're last *or* wahhh I'm not first, I'm never first) and less often by Middle, but she still does it. I have a feeling some of this is her difficulty regulating due to being AuDHD and we're working on that, but is there anything else in the short term I am missing to get this madness to end? I'm at the end of my rope.

Example: Middle gets cereal in her bowl first and now Eldest is crying she didn't get to be first.

We firmly believe our middle is also autistic and our youngest may be as well (less sure there at the moment), but can't do much until she starts school; "she might grow out of it" (oh, like her sister did? *Insert eye roll*)
