Is this mustard algae or what kind of algae, can you tell from photos above

I did the SLAM process , i vacuumed every day for 3 days and kept the chlorine level very high, still algae is coming back One thing to mention is that the bottom drains are not working so the pool is running of the skims Could that be the reason

I opened my pool 2 weeks ago and The filter has been running every day 10-16 hours, it was very green, i spent lots of chemicals including 10 lbs of shock , 7 x 3’ chlorine tabs, 2 bottles of algicide , 1 bottle of clarifier, 15 lbs of alkaline, all the levels are good the only thing thats not...

Hi I havent still closed my inground vnyl pool Trying to find someone to close it, I Want to understand whether I have couple more weeks or not What's the temperature that can cause pool any damage ? Is it something like -20?

I used a leak company and now the pool is not leaking anymore However when he saw the wrinkles at the bottom he said it would be good to reinstall the vinyl I believe that would cost another 1500 $ The wrinkles happened in june If I delay this would that cause vinyl leaks or other problems or...

Dye is sucked into pipe in the skimmer

Whats pad?

i shut off all the valves

Do you mean turn of the skimmer valves?

Well i found that the main drains are leaking I plugged them but still there is a leak . I did the dye test on the skimmer suction lines and its leaking What to do

I refilled the pool still leaking 1 inch When the pump is off the suction line in the skimmer is pulling dry into it So i guess its is also leaking in the skimmer suction line? If so, Does fix a leak work? Any advise?

So the square cap valve at the bottom is a HS valve?

I am attsching the picture of the drains . Hope that make sense there is a suction line inside the drain thats leaking the cap at the bottom is not . Do you think that its a hydrostatic valve? So you are saying as a temporary solution until I find a pool repair guy i can close off the suction...

I have two drains, both of them are leaking in the hole on the side , there is no hydrostatic valve instead there is a square cap valve(at the bottom) What are most options until I get it fixed? If I put a plug to the drains I assume i can't run the filter. My skimmers also have low suctions...

Well it drops below the top line of the lamp, if I let it drop more the shallow end will be only 5 inches deep so I am afraid to let it drop more, what do you think, can I let it drop till 2inches of tall of the shallow side?
