New setup- driveway? 16x48 Ultra Intex / Saltwater

[Pappy]

It does. It also turns blonde hair green, and in some cases fingernails too. It stains pool liners. It will eventually turn your water the color of the statue of liberty.

Most properly maintained chlorine pools will NEVER need copper based algaecides. No properly maintained chlorine pool needs a daily dose of copper.

Pappy, what you said is almost all correct . . . but 25+ years of messing with pools and pool chemistry have taught me that "Never" is a word I should avoid! (Not that I always remember that. )
