Or something else?

It doesn't seem gritty. When it first appeared, water was cloudy/green and I shocked the pool to the right chlorine levels given my CYA. Water has been clear since.

But it keeps coming back. Pretty baffled here.

You're done shocking when:
1)You lose 1ppm or less FC overnight, & 2)You have .5ppm CC's or less, & 3)your water is clear.
