Yep it's green alright. I would go ahead and SLAM it. Follow the directions to the T. Your shock FC level is 10-12.
Are you in pollen season there ?

So.....after floccing last night....I just did a vacuum and it seems around 70% of the GREEN has vacuumed up! The rest is floating through the water in small particles. Hoping my newly correctly piped filter now clears the water.
May be pollen or something like that. I would stop with the floc and let your filter do it's job now that it is working the way it should. If it's clearing up hold off on the SLAM and see what happens.
If this clears up without a SLAM, your CYA needs to come up a bunch. 70-80 ppm for your SWG.

I had a feeling this was going to be an Algae outbreak. I think if it were mine, I would SLAM it until I passed all three criteria. I think the potential is high that you've barely killed all the Algae, some is till around, and it will juet be waiting to bloom again.
