too much bleach

Keep in mind that the chlorine kills the algae, but the filter removes it from the water...the fact that you've gone from green to blue is a good sign. Keep your filter running, backwash as needed, and be patient--depending on your pump/filter/pool size, it may take a few days to get it all out.

If you're not going to vaccuum until tomorrow, don't wait--get the chlorine in now!
