oops I caused a perfectly clear pool to be cloudy
This morning after a round of testing I got CYA <30 (something less than 30, dot almost went away), PH 7.8, FC 1.5, CC .5
I added 1 cup of powdered CYA and 13oz of leftover HTH Super Shock 'n Swim. I have 5 more bags of this stuff so I thought I would alternate it with bleach till it is gone, or use one if I am temporarily out of bleach. Well the pool went cloudy right away, and has been cloudy all day. The shock is calcium hypochlorite 52%, Other 48%.
-Will the cloudiness go away, or do I have to do something about it?
-How should I dispose of the 5 bags of Shock? I can't in good faith give it to anyone, I would rather "preach bleach" to them.
-8200 gallon 20' x 4' (3.5' really) Intex Ultra Frame. Well water w/high alkalinity.
-"A" filter cartridge, surface skimmer. I spray the A filter every 2 days when I check the chlorine. I only use bleach (3-6), muriatic acid (to knock down ph & alkalinity), and stabilizer (cya 50).
