Hi all
Just had our pool redone about two months ago. Started noticing these small spots on the more shallow end of the pool but also from the deep end too. From what I’ve read, it may be in the actual pebble tech itself. Here’s the kicker, spots are showing up in the pool but not the jacuzzi. So, they didn’t have enough pebble tech to do the jacuzzi so the had to come back a few days later. A DIFFERENT BATCH OF PEBBLE TECH! The color is French gray.
We thought it was a plant of some sort however we have been running our pool vacuum 24/7.
We do not believe it is rebar. Side note, when we had the regular plaster before redoing our pool, we never noticed any stains. We have not planted any new plants or trees and we do not use any kind of pesticide on our plants. Anyone else got this problem? Things that make you go hmmm 🤔.

Welcome to TFP! :wave: Along with Wireform's question above, I would also ask if you have tried rubbing a Vitamin C tablet on this suspected iron stain. If it's iron as you suspect, a Vitamin C tablet will confirm it.
