yes waterbear I noticed that you are not a mod but from the threads that I have been scanning you are just as knowledgeable as they are and as with all the other mods nice enough to repeat the same steps over & over to each person who starts a thread.

and just a side note to put in the Cleaning a Pool for Dummies book when doing all the vacuuming and backwashing involed in clearing an algea problem remember to vacuum behind your steps when my water cleared up enough I got a look behind my steps and what a mess it was all dead but just laying there where I can't get my vacuum head took the time tonight to remove them from my deck and clean and got in to stir up the water a bit after didn't stay in too long though water temp is only 62 deg not bad once your in but a bear to get into
