    I managed to get the water blue and clear again, but I'm cleaning the filter way too often. I'll keep referring back to this.

    Great news! There's probably still some dead algae getting filtered out. Did you pass the overnight test with no more than 1ppm loss of FC and less than .5CC?

    I really don't know anything about DE filters. Here is a guide that PoolDoc wrote. Maybe it will help:
