    Default Cloudy- Cal-Hypo????

    I have been down with my back so DH has been taking over pool care. I cleared it beautifully for spring break, then the back went and the algae came after much rain. Well he has it cleared back up except cloudiness.I discovered last night he has been using quite a bit of the bags of shock from wal-mart, AND bleach.He couldn't get the cloudy to go away and I didn't know why. So after much reading on here this morning I took my wore out behind down and looked. The shock is Cal-Hypo.Can I safrly assume this is my cloudy issue? Will it clear up? I did test with shot glass method. Only have small kit so can't FC,CC,TC.
    Chlorine 12(approx)
    PH 7.4
    ALK 180
    CYA 45-50
    Vinyl pool .4'x 18' round
    Hope I didn't leave out anything. OH, Dh has always had it rigged with pvc on the return so it comes up out of the pool about a foot with a 45 angle on the end so water is constantly mixing and splashing like a waterfall. (He likes the sound) Also have the spray thing. Have been running constant for a week. My vacuum is down. I need to replace the rubber O-Rings. Anyway I'm rambling here. My concern is the cloudiness. Should it clear? What should I do if not?I believe algae is gone and we should let chlorine drop now? I depend on yall for advice, so offer it and I will follow. ; ) Thanks bunches, Gladys
