Hello all,
I have a thick layer of green algae on the bottom that I’ve spent one day, beginning at the deep end, removing by hand with a 20-inch leaf rake, because I feel it may be too thick for my Pentair GW9500 Kreepy Krauly.
I know it doesn’t look it, but I actually started over on the left side by the skimmer, so that’s not quite as thick anymore. I only have some time on my weekends, at this rate it’s going to take a while.
I don’t have a before picture, but the water was dark green and I couldn’t see the bottom, but after six 2.5 gallon jugs of chlorine from Leslie’s since last Thursday, here’s where I’m at today.
That said, I’ve thought about just draining it and starting from scratch, so I’m wondering whether or not I’m on the right track or what you would do?
I appreciate your feedback!
