So this is a better picture than what was taken of what was found in the pool recently. Any ideas what it is?

So I am a freak when it comes to balancing my pool chemistry. For some reason I love checking the levels of everything and trying to get it perfectly balanced. The result is a crystal clear pool all season long! Now I keep hearing about this flesh eating virus in warm waters and even pools...

I suppose this is probably somewhere on this site but I searched and didn’t find anything. Maybe the wrong key word?? I have a 10 month old German Shepherd pup that loves to swim. My concern is the vinyl liner and her nails. I tried different dog socks, and Paws (rubber sock like thing)...

Last fall my pool was installed. Soon after the screws around the light began to rust which I thought was solely due to the installer putting way too much salt in. About two months ago they came out and replaced the screws. The pool is balanced and the salt levels are fine yet the screws are...

I had a little green in my hair so I knew copper had to be in the water. Got a test kit and sure enough...copper. How do you get that out of the water? I just put some metal out last night, will that do it?

My installer put WAY too much salt in the pool last season right after install, anyway it rusted some screws, screws have been replaced but there are rust stains. I read about using vitamin c. Is that tablets or powder? Asking before I buy off of Amazon. If it is tablets, where do you buy...

Okay so on cooler days I throw the solar cover on. There is this black bird that purposely poops all over it. In fact the little jerk ? brings poop in his beak and purposely drops it. Any one else have this issue? Any ideas on how to get it to stop? It may be more than one...lotta ? on...

I see these seem to be the two kits recommended. Which one is a better bang for the buck? Which one has more reageants? Some reagents I notice I am going through quicker than others, does one provide more of the ones used more often?

Has anyone used this? It is cheaper than any other 40 lb bags but I couldn't see purity of salt on the bag anywhere. Ahh that should be Chlorox pool salt

Okay so my PH level is high. Never had that happen with my old pool. I went to get muriatic acid at Lowe's. When I grabbed a bottle it started spilling out the top onto their concrete floor and immediately started bubbling up and splashed my hands. Needless to say it burned and they had no...

My pool is finally done. I went with the salt water generator but already screws around the Hayward pool light are rusting. Very upset that rusting has already begun and water hasn't even been in the pool long. So now my new light looks old with rust stains. Are there different screws I can...

I want to get a solar cover and reel for my pool. The shape of my pool is curvy, Mt. Lake is the name of the design. At its widest it is 21 foot and it is 40 ft long. I know I will not find a solar cover shaped to fit, would an oval or rectangle 21x40ish work if I cut it? Also, I cannot...

If you have an automatic cleaner, what brand is it, what do you like and dislike about it? Would you purchase again and if not what other brand would you purchase?

Okay I had a saltwater above ground pool. I loved it!!! I was told saltwater would ruin my concrete around the pool and that it is hard on all the pool parts like the filter and such. What I liked about the saltwater system is that the water was silky smooth and it did not have that strong...

I have had an above ground saltwater pool for years, and am currently having an inground pool installed. Only concrete, liner, and equipment Like pump and filter install left. Have lots of questions, but will post those elsewhere.
