On 4/3 I installed a new liner. On 4/4 I finished getting it all lined up and added some water. No wrinkles or issues so I filled her up. My pool rover needed a new bag so it was ordered. Got it in and now the power supply doesn't work, so I had to order a new one. That'll be here new week.
In the mean time, some leaves and flowers from my bottle brush trees got into the pool. I didn't have a vacuum, so it sat of a few days. Water was clear at one time, but now it has a green hue. But I have no algae and it's not the same as if algae is starting to grow. Water is very clear, but has a tint.
Anyone ever run into issues where trees or plants have tinted the water? How do you get rid of that tint? I vacuumed up all the debris that was in it manually, but nothing changed.
It's a fresh fill so my chemicals are off but I am getting them inline.
I added 10lbs of CYA, I had 0.
Added 3.5 gal of 6% bleach to hold it over till the CYA was tested. Hoping for a 60-70 result.
Testing as of 4/12 is
FC-1
CC-3
pH-7.8
TA-120
CYA-0
Salt-3400
After taking that test, I added 78oz of MA to bring down TA.
Today 4/13 I will test everything again this afternoon, and make adjustments as needed.
Right now my biggest concern is getting the green/brown tint out. Any help is appreciated.
