Okay- I think we've gotten the algae killed. It took about 10 gallons of bleach to get it to this milky, slightly green color. The first 6 gallons only helped for a short time and the pool turned deep, deep green again. I got aggressive and added more. My test strips and bottles are showing high chlorine and bromine. The ph is good, though. The were a lot of little specks of critters floating in the floating in the sample jar, but those are gone, too. I appreciate the help. I'm not stupid, but I'm used to taking a sample to the pool store and having them analyze it and sell me chemicals for three times the walmart price. I'd like to learn how to do this myself.
