This year I ditched the normal doses of algaecide in favor of the maintenance I learned in here.
the water is clear and the chemistry is balanced. I check on the FC frequently to keep my SWG on target. What I noticed today is grey slippery slime on the pool walls, mainly near the tile line and the crevices of the step. It brushes off quite easily and flakes into the water. I have not really seen this much before - occassionally I would feel it on the inset of the return outlet and the light and just brushed it away.
Now it is more prevalent although the water is in great shape. Is it some sort of grey algae I am getting? If so, what to do?
Today's chemistry
Temp 83F
FC 6.5
CC 0
pH 7.7
TA 90
CH 350
CYA 80
Borates 30
Thanks
Evan
