What wireform was referring to is that CYA in a sock will solidify into a brick if not agitated by flowing water.
My experience is that when thoroughly squishing the sock while submerging it into the water keeps the CYA powdery. When I'm in a hurry, then I tie the sock to a stick and drag the sock around the pool through the water. That releases the CYA pretty quickly into the water. Some of it will settle on the pool floor after a while, but a quick brushing will make that disappear quickly.
The CYA in Australia comes as a very fine powder rather then the coarser granules that seem to be the standard in the US.
Disadvantage of the powder is that it can brickify even more densely, but when avoiding that with above mentioned squishing while submerging method, it leaves the sock probably faster than granules would, before it gets a chance to rebrickify. So, my method might not work for you.
