    To aide in clearing your pool, you may also want to consider using a skimmer sock to help catch particles before they get to the filter. I have been amazed at the gunk it catches, and continues to catch, in my crystal clear pool.

    You can purchase these skimmers socks at WalMart (package of 3 for about $5). However, not all WalMart carries them. I have 3 WalMarts in my area, and only the Super WalMart has them, which coincidentally has the better stocked pool department.

    Good luck.

    Thanks for the advice, DE is in, pool is up to shock level and filter is running, now I just have to wait. As for the skimmer sock, I learned a trick from this forum to use womens nylon stockings - which I have been, and I too am suprised from all the stuff it catches pre-filter, my wife is also suprised on her diminishing nylon drawer - I did not know there were "good ones". I'm learning more than I thought.
