My recommendation is to throw a stone in and you'll probably be able to have stone soup for dinner! (Do you know that book?)
Wow! You have been what we call around here "pool-stored." I suggest you stay away from those pool stores as they don't know what they are doing. I can't believe they both told you that you have no metals in the water. Unbelievable.
How big is this pool (volume)? How big a deal is it to drain and refill? Any chance of having non-well water trucked in? If not, it will not be easy to clear up but we'll try and help.
You do need a good test kit either way. The one we recommend is the Taylor K-2006 or 2006C (same kit, larger bottle of some reagents). If you buy it through the Amazon link in my signature, the Pool Forum makes a little money on the sale which helps us keep this form online. Only buy if the seller is Amato Industries, however. Some other sellers are substituting the K-2005 which you do NOT want. If Amato isn't listed, wait a day or two and try again. They seem to restock pretty quickly when they sell out.
What kind of pool is this, what type of filter and size of pump do you have?
Welcome to the Pool Forum by the way.
