Just filled 10,000 gal. AG pool after putting in new liner...added stabilizer through skimmer as directed, algacide as directed and a gallon of bleach, when I woke up, the new, clear water was now bluish gray, could I have added chemicals too soon after each other or what. It was midnight, I was tired and anxious to get pool up and running before my vacation started...help!!!!

Who advised the algaecide? What kind was it? Also, has filter been running all this time? Let it run 24/7

have always added algacide at start up and before closing for season....not sure of brand as I tossed bottle and its gone....pump was backwashed, used filter cleaner (sand filter) usually run filter 24/7 during start up.
