Hello, new to the post I have a 24ft 52inch above ground pool about three weeks ago I opened the pool to find that over the winter cover had ripped an let in all kinds of leaves and the water was black. So to get started I shocked the pool and added algeide and ran the filter which is a sta-rite cartridge filter, after 2 days the water was a cloudy blue. After getting all my chemicals in order and running the pump the water was still cloudy. After almost 2 weeks I broke down and took the water to get tested(first time in 13years I have done this), to my dismay and buying chemicals the pool store said I needed the water is cloudy blue. I have even tried to floc the pool which helped very little but when I vacuumed the bottom the pool clouded up again. I read a post which said to get chlorine level around 5 which I did by adding bleach. As of today I added more algeide and added a water claifier. Here are my test readings.
