I have about a 12,000 gallon pool in Southern California and over the past few weeks since its been extremely hot and humid I developed a bit of a green algae problem.
On the advice of the local Leslie's, after scrubbing all the algae off with a brush I added a couple bags of shock and a liquid algae treatment the name of which I can't remember. This seems to have helped with the visible algae not sticking to the sides and the bottom anymore but this was three days ago and each day since I wake up to find my water a little greener and a little cloudier. This morning the water was so cloudy I couldn't see the bottom in the shallow end.
I dont know if I should add additional chlorine since I shocked the heck out of it just a few days ago so can anyone advise me on what I need to do to get the water cleared back up again?
