Thanks
Basically, if it was still foggy, the algae was not all dead. When it goes green, you have to maintain high chlorine levels until it is clear. The foggy or murkiness is just a step along the way which indicates you are making progress and getting there.

Great set of pictures here where you can see this progression: http://www.poolsolutions.com/gd/does...ill-algae.html
