I have to agreee with Duraleigh. If you get your CYA level down the pool will be much more managable in terms of treating the algae and also in normal chlorination. Shoot for a CYA level in the 30-50 ppm range if you can.

Another vote for draining half or more.
Re: Treat water or drain?
me too - if possible drain at least half, it will be much easier to clear up the water and keep it that way.
