    I would say the pool is more cloudy then green. If you sweep it then green does appear to come off the vinyl and then the pool looks nasty. Buying the test you all recommended today. Sure I wont have it until next week because of shipping. I am going to use my Wal-mart test again this evening when I get home.

    Add the bleach this evening, and then sweep AFTER you've done so; not before.

    Thanks.

    Hopefully, if you're here a lot, it will be to help others. It shouldn't take that long to get a basic handle on what you need for your own pool!
