Newbie's green pool

[George in Georgia]

An update. Yesterday evening added about 11 gal of 6% bleach. This morning added another 8 or 9 gal., plus 32 oz 50% algaecide. At about 2pm added 9 gal bleach, plus some more algaecide.

pH is holding about 7.5. There is essentially no free chlorine present just before the next bleach addition. I suppose the algae is using it up. The pool does seem to be clearing a bit, I can see further down into the "lurking murk."

I guess we'll just keep on truckin', unless anyone has a better idea. I think we're getting a rep at Kroger and Publix as "those crazy bleach folks."
