Hello,
We have an 18' round 48" high above ground pool and are located in central CT, we are not rural, and while we don't have a lot of trees, our neighbor does. We are trying the BBB method this summer. We opened the pool late due to a cool rainy June and when we did we had tadpoles in the cover...as well as two frogs. There was a fair amount of debris on the cover that got dumped into the pool when we opened it. We have vacuumed and scrubbed the walls which were covered with green algae. We have been adding 32 ounces of bleach at a time, and we never seem to get a reading of and free chlorine. Our daughter has sensitive skin so we're hoping to be able to manage the chlorine on the low side. Any suggestions on how to clear up the water? From a distance it looks clean and clear, but when you get up close you can't see through the cloudy water to the bottom. We have a sand filter that is large enough for a 24' oval pool, and we continue to run it and backwash to keep it clean.

Suggestions welcome!
Jean
