Sand on bottom and water is dull (not sparkling)?

Are you using plain, unscented bleach? Not the new and improved Clorox with the added ingredients? Any chance that it's either pollen from a nearby tree, or sand from nearby construction or dirt roads? Also you say that you've had the filter on bypass with no residue....when you added the bleach, did you switch it back to filter? That to me would still point toward a lateral problem.

Hi. Regular unscented bleach and I kept it in bypass. I am wondering if when I pour in the bleach it is bringing small particles to the bottom of the pool with it? May be pollen or something similar. Not quite sure what it is. I touch it with a brush and it dissapears, but it will come back.
