Our pool turned green - lack of monitoring
My brother-in-law from out of town is convinced we should use copper hydroxide to clear it up. He is a professional crop watcher and has used it to clear up ponds with algea in Michigan.
We put in 5 jugs of chlorine this morning before he showed up with his advice. We went ahead and put about 1/4 to 1/2 cup of copper hydroxide in probably about an hour later just to keep him happy. I'm still pretty leary about this idea.
Any negative affects I should know about so I can tell him we're not putting in anymore? Or can I humor him and try it? Looking for an answer before 9 a.m. Friday when he comes back over.
Thanks.
