It is a above ground pool ( not intex). It's a 24' round ( roughly 7700 gallons). It has a sand filter with it but I'm not sure of the size. I know it takes 4 bags of sand and stands about 3.5' tall. ( I can get more info tomorrow). In the beginng, the numbers were awful. I brought the numbers up to: ph7.5, alky 100, chlorine 2. Then I shocked the pool pretty hard. ( 2 lbs). Then after the numbers settled I added a algaecide ( copper was the main ingredient ) I believe the brand was Aqua chem?

It went from green to a aqua color but was extremely cloudy. I tried the flock listed in a previous post, followed directions and 48hrs later the was no change.. Decide to drain the pool. I got 3/4 of it drained when my local pool supplier ( 110 miles away) told me to stop ASAP and refill because the liner could shrink and cause me a lot more trouble. So now I have refilled it, vacuumed all the left over algae to waste. I have noticed some new algae forming.

Current numbers are chlor-0, ph 6.4, alk 60. I'm about to get ph/alky back to good readings and start over with anyone's advice.

Thanks!!
