oops.... I used a floc!

I was one that was stubborn with the whole Bleach thing and I had very badly colored water in my 18 x 48 intex metal frame pool. It was a combo of algea and metal.
I took the advice from the pool store and I used a flocculant-It cleared up my water beautifully-I vaccummed to waste a lot! Although every time someone swims in it now-it gets cloudy.
If I shut the filter off it clears up after a few hours-when all of the stuff sinks to the bottom again.

Will persistence with bleach and filtering clear it up eventually? I can vacuum although it only works so well. Wasn't sure if I could get an aqua bug with the kind of pool I have.
Hoping filtering will work. Any advice?

Vacuum all that nasty stuff to waste and get it out of your pool. That may help on the cloudy water issue. Pools will get a little cloudy with high bather use.

Ok-well I shut the pump off so it all falls back to the bottom. I closed the pool for the day and I will just keep vacuuming to waste and adding more water to make up for my loss until it is all gone!

Does anyone know if I can use an aquabug on an intex pool? Or any other suggestions?

todays numbers

fc-5-10
alk-180
ph-7.5
cya-30

Yes, I have an Intex pool and have an aqua bug and it works great! :)

Good Luck

Great thanks!! Do you know the model number?

I'm not sure what you're asking...the model # of the aqua bug? I'm not sure - I got the diver dave version from www.intheswim.com.

Hope this helps! :)

That is what I was looking for! Thank you so much.
