Thanks for the advice and the community, you guys are great!!

Ok, water is clear, I'm taking a sample down to the pool store today just to try to get an idea of what my final numbers are.

So I've gotten it to here. . . Blue, not green. I'm gonna let the filter run through the day, see what it can do for the clarity. . . 26 gallons of 10% chlorine into the thing!!
