    Unhappy cloudy and still balancing metals

    TODAY'S NUMBERS:
    FC 2.0
    cc .5
    PH 7
    ALK 60
    CYA 80

    Hi, and thank you in advance!
    The water is not green, but it is very cloudy and I cannot see the drain, the shallow end is starting to stain, but I can deal with that after the cloud is gone. I have Culator bags in the baskets, Ascorbic acid in the pantry and metal free on hand.

    Water turned cloudy 48 hours ago, I added polyquot 60 and also 3 gallons bleach slowly over 2 days since it was almost 0, The ph was at 6 so I have been adding borax .
    yesterday I also added a clarifier but its still cloudy. filter running 24/7

    Should I keep adding bleach ? borax?
