Our 13,000 gallon 24ft above ground pool with a cartridge filter has been green for almost 10 days. It turned green after leaving the cover on for a 2 days during a heat wave.
In the beginning we poured bleach in it to try and kill the algae, however, we got our water tested at a pool store and they said our chlorine was sky high and the algae had grown immune to the chlorine and there was nothing we could do.
We've been cleaning and changing the filter every few hours and the water is looking a little better, but still really green. Is there anything else we can do to get the pool back to blue?
the levels as of today:
FAC - 10
TAC - 10
CH - 250
CYA - 90
TA - 80
pH - 7.8
Copper - 0
Iron - 0
TDS - 1100
Pho - 200
