    So after about two weeks of shocking my pool, it is finally clear. Well, it was until I turned my creepers on. Its blue but has white residue , dead algae. There has to be a better way to get rid of the dead stuff than just filtering. Please help.

    =======

    this seems to be a difficult task getting rid of the dead algae with cartridge filters. What a bout a water clarifier or a floc to clump the dead stuff and scoop it out with a net? I have been running my filters 24/7 for 3 weeks now and now that i am at the point of getting rid of the dead algae, i am stumped.
