I'll start this by saying I wished I had kept a log with my pool readings over the past 2 weeks and all the chemicals I put in, but I'll do my best to remember.
2 weeks ago we had a lot of rain over the course of a few days and at the same time my pump stopped working. So the pool sat uncirculated for about3-4 days. During that time it became a very cloudy green color that I assumed was algae starting to grow.
After I got my pool pump working again I started adding bleach to try to SLAM it back to normal. After several days of no improvement I noticed the PH and Alkalinity were very high.
I added 3 gallons of muriatic acid yesterday. It has since been 32 hours since I poured it in with no improvement.
looks like alkalinity is 150, and PH is 6.8 as of a couple minutes ago.
I will add some pictures so you all can see what it looks like
Thank you all for any help.
