Brown spots on pool bottom

May 21, 2009

I've recently noticed patches of brown spots on my pool bottom in the deep end. Neither brushing nor vacuuming remove the spots. My current readings are:

FC: 10.5
CC: 0
pH: 7.2
TA: 210
CH: 380
CYA: 90

Does anybody have any idea what the spots might be and how I can get rid of them?
 
Yeah, iron would be my guess but it's only a guess. Holding the vitamin C tab on the stain for a minute or two should confirm it if it's iron. If the Vitamin C has no effect, high FC levels will most likely cause it to fade away in time. Can you post a good pic?
