Re: Just opened my pool and the water is green
Two bottles of bleach may or may not be enough. You need to test and keep the CL level very high. I think 25ppm is recommended. That may require as much as two bottles of bleach a day. Brush the pool at least once a day and run the filter continuously. The water color will change fairly quickly but it will take another day or two of bleach and brushing before all the algae is dead and gone. You'll know it's dead when your CL test levels stop falling. Then you just need patience while the filter works to get it all out. Good luck, I hope this helps!
