Hi everybody. I'm a bit of a noobie here but I seem to have mustard algae, at least when i brush the pool i get clouds of yellowish stuff hitting the water. This just started after a bunch of rain and cloudy days (I'm in Atlanta, GA)
Before this happened my levels were:
FC 2.8-3
CC 0
TA 75
CYA 55
PH 7.6
Water Temp 89 F
I ran the SWG at 100% for 36 hours straight and FC went up to 6.5.
Before I did that I had clear water but yellow stains on the sides (sloping) and floor of the pool. After I ramped up the SWG I had no stains, but when I brushed I had lots of yellow clouds again.
I lowered my PH to 7.2 and just added 10% bleach to raise FC up to 24 to kill this stuff. What I am confused about is my CC has stayed at 0. Shouldn't this be climbing if the FC was actually killing anything?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
