    Unhappy My water is brown/yellow

    I have a 20 foot by 48 inch ultra frame intex pool. We set it up added water and it was fine I put the chlorine in the next day it was green so I read to add super shock so I did then the water turned like a brownish yellow I was told to put in metal out as our cities water has allot of metal in it but still looks the same I'm stumped...Please help. Do I do pH or????

    1. Read the SSR and start following it.

    2. Run your filter 24/7

    3. Purchase an OTO / phenol red drops kit at Walmart, and use it. Post the results.
