Hopefully someone can help.

Pool greenish/ a little cloudy, with pH on high side (7.8). Ground with fine sediment which is difficult to appreciate until brushing (easily brushed off). Initially thought this was dirt, but continued to re-accumulate despite daily vacuuming (sometimes 2 runs with my Polaris robot, as well as manual vacuuming). No classic algae appreciated on floor/ walls. All started a couple weeks ago after rain.
Yesterday morning I treated with dry acid (pH around 7.8/7.9) after changing filters, then a few hours later shocked (3 and a half gallons liquid shock, 12.5%). Filter has been on since then, now 28 hours later. Have vacuumed with my Polaris x 2 and brushed a few times. Still green/ cloudy (looks same).
Chemistries below.
Suggestions?
Thx
