    Stock pump vs Intex sand filter

    Ive been doing some research and it seems everyone is using a sand pump filter. I have a 6k gal pool and I want to do this right. Is the sand filter worth purchasing or the stock pump work for the size of my pool?

    Yes i am using well water. Which is known for having a high iron level. Should i just try the "metal out" or should i SLAM the pool also? Also how long does it take after putting the metal out in to see results?
