Help me take control

[JamesW]

@JamesW, I'm a bit confused with this post, and your second one about a stain ID kit. It's as if you're responding to a different thread. Did the OP mention these stains in some other thread?

They have 2 threads and the other one has pictures.

Hello from Southern California

Hi all, I’m joining the site because I need to learn how to take care of the pool myself and you all have a ton of resources that are so useful.

Unless those are very odd reflections, I agree with JamesW there is staining. If this is wished to be addressed, getting a stain kit now would be relevant as if a treatment to remove stains is done, the pool will need to be completely drained.

If staining is not a concern, then a large water exchange or RO is warranted. Up to the OP.

Thanks Marty. I haven't seen the other thread that James has referred to. Does this one need to be combined with that one, to avoid conflicting advice?

It was an Intro thread. Did not ask a question. So all is good.
