We opened the pool last week. It was a green nasty mess. Added lots of bleach (about 12-15 gallons) and got it to a blue cloudy mess. I thought it was on the way to clearing up but it has not got any clearer. I took some water to be tested, but I don't know if I should follow the recommendations (using BBB) of amounts to use.

I have an octagon 16,000 gallon, vinyl, in ground pool.

Temperature 73
Saturation index -0.7
TDS 1400
CYA 0
TC 0.6
FC 0.5
PH 7.1
Tot Alk 68
Adj Tot Alk 68
hardness 211

Recommendations:
17 lbs Balance Pak 100 (Alk), wait 3 hours then apply 1 lb Lo N' Slo (ph), wait 15 mins add 5 lb Stabilizer 100 (CYA), then 2 bags of Burn out 35 (I have no idea what this is supposed to do).

What are your recommendations? Should I add 17 lbs of baking powder????
