Hello, we are kinda new to owning a Pool, 3 years now. We have a 30,000. Gallon Pool, and every year have problems when opening it, always always green, this year it was green only the 1 st day, but am having trouble with it being cloudy? Any help would be appreciated

Hey FM and Welcome !!!!
What kind of mineral water we talking about ? A mineral system, or Mineral Springs brand ?
Green pools need to SLAM Process. You'll need a relaible test kit to DIY. Test Kits Compared.
We'll have you up to speed long before the fall.

I'm sorry to say but the mineral systems simply aren't effective at sanitizing your pool water. You will likely continue to have problems until you switch to liquid chlorine or a SWG. It's unfortunate people push these systems with either a) knowing they aren't effective or b) are completely ignorant to the fact.

OK phew. It's really expensive salt, CYA and some borates, but only harmful to your wallet.
The mineral 'systems' add copper and or silver to your water which are both no-no's.
You need your own test kit and to SLAM. Read the links i posted above. Ask away if we need to fill in any blanks.
