Hey gang. A couple of days ago it rained and afterwards my pool looked a little cloudy and the water had a green tint. My TA levels were around 140 but everything else seemed pretty fine but I would lose a several ppm's of FC each day to where I was adding a half a gallon of bleach each day. I live in Arizona where it's steadily been 106 degrees and I was thinking that was affecting my FC levels, and then I read in a different thread that if you lose more than ppm of chlorine a day something might be wrong. So I started a SLAM and have been doing it for practically 3 days now and the pool is still cloudy and now a little green. Shallow areas look great and clear but the deep end I can barely see the bottom. I'm also adding about a third a gallon of bleach every hour just to keep my FC at shock levels. I can't figure out what's going on. My levels right now are:
16000 gallon pool
FC 24
CC 0
PH 7.4
TA 120
CYA 60
I read somewhere else that there might be copper or metal in the water and that's why it's greenish? Would that make the water somewhat cloudy as well? It's not so cloudy that I can't see the drain at the bottom but it's faint. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've spent a lot of money on a lot of bleach and can't afford it.
