    My concern would be why you have green anything coming out of your filter. That seems like it could be live algae which is a problem for any filter/slim bag unless of course you kill it first. What are the FC, CC and CYA levels?

    I had an algae bloom a few months back. Ive been fighting to get it out of the pool ever since. It seems the dead algae settles on the floor and other algae form around it.

    My CYA is in the mid 50's, FC I keep around 5-6, and when I get that level, I usually add 2 3/4 jugs of Walmart bleach, then let it fall again. Currently not using any tablets. CC is 0. PH is 7.4 - 7.6.
