    I have the same problem with my intex 18x48. I have run the filter 24/7 for a week now and it has cleared slightly but still cloudy at the bottom. From reading this site I found a great recommendation for the poolbuster. I just got it today so I hope it will clear the water since the vacuum for the intex will not. I'll let you know how it works!

    Hi I would leave the cover off while shocking and keeping higher chlorine levels as some of the gunk you are killing leaves the pool as gas. it would be alright to cover it at night but it helps to let the bad stuff gas off.

    You can also siphon vacuum to waste to get the fine stuff off the bottom. There are several posts in the Intex area that tell how to do this.
