I will update my signature.. great suggestion. I added 2 gallons of acid and the pool immediately cleared up. I will test it tonight and adjust accordingly. Thanks for all of the help

ok.. I will lower the PH since I do not have the test kit suggested. Thanks for the tip

the pool is 79 degrees by the way

it is a white cloudiness. I did add 15 lbs of calcium 2 weeks ago as it was low. Maybe I should use a calcium based powder vs. liquid ? Not sure if it is algea or calcium at this point. I have a new bottle of algicide should I dmp that in the pool?

was at 7.3 over the weekend from the shock treament last week. I also have been putting in an algecide for 1 month.

The chlorine is liquid that I buy from the pool store. This is the 2nd time it has happened. It clouds up instantly. The first time it happened was last Tuesday. I just got it 95% clear. I just put in approx. 2.5 gallons from a new 5 gallon container and it is cloudy again. I am not using tabs...

water tested on sunday and levels were.. PH 7.9 alk 130 CA 100 Calcium 200

ok thanks... Everytime I use liquid chlorine the pool is cloudy for several days and I have to run the pump 24 hr/day. Is there something I am missing. All other levels are in check.

does anyone know where I can get unstabilized tabs? I have an offline chlorine feeder which I have used but now battle the high CYA levels. I am working the CYA down (currently at 100) but want to keep using the chlorinator I have.

Re: Oxalic Acid to Treat Fungas on under side of a gunite po I did drain the water last year and lowered the CYA.. It came back up qucikly this year with the tabs I am using so I am now planning to us more frequent liquid chlorine and less tabs.. It is more work.. If the FC is in range how does...

Re: Oxalic Acid to Treat Fungas on under side of a gunite po I shocked last weekend after heavy use from a holiday party. Is there some sort of super shock treatment I can use to promote the lightening of the stains? 4 years ago I had a guy come in a dump 16 gallons of muratic acid in and it...

Re: Oxalic Acid to Treat Fungas on under side of a gunite po sorry I misunderstood the question... it lloks like it removed the stain where I haave the tablet.

Re: Oxalic Acid to Treat Fungas on under side of a gunite po No change. the stains get worse every year. I also use liquid shock and used 3 gallons last weekend.
