I've been trying to clean up my 15' round above-ground pool for over three weeks now. I've replaced the filter and have been running the pump around the clock most of the time. I've added countless chemicals and the levels seem right now.

I had a big foaming problem which seems to have eased off now even though I haven't yet replaced the o-ring on the union between the skimmer and the pump.

BUT...the water's still extremely cloudy and about three days ago I found a dead frog in the skimmer basket and then again this morning I found another dead frog in the skimmer basket.

How do I clear up my pool? I've been swimming in it anyway but I'd like it to be clear.

Hi fellow West Virginian and welcome to the Pool Forum!

The best thing you can do is to provide us with some current water testing results taken with a drops-based kit. Also, tell us exactly what you have put into the pool meaning ingredients and not just product names or 'shock.' Then somebody here can try and help. I assume you have a sand filter?
