Ok first time I am opening a pool. I was going off previous homeowners instructions but have some issues
Took off cover and water was semi green but mostly clear. It did have a bit of tree debris from the previous fall
Got all the equipment set up. It all worked fine. Installed new nature2 cart and fired up pump and filter added de and then added shock. Tested it and had:
Fc - 3ppm
TC - 3ppm
Ch - 170
Cya - 0
Ta - 90
Ph - 8.0
Pho - 100
I added calcium to bring up ch. I also added a little algacide. After running for 8 hrs. Debris in water has significantly reduced but water is now cloudy and has afishy smell. Also filter went up about 10 psi. Should I syop and backwash? How to get rid of fish smell? Also on a few areas there is brown stain onplaster which scrubbing did not take off
Any help is greatly appreciated
