We had our 1900's era aluminum coping replaced with pavers, finishing touches tomorrow.

We love our mason, but our pool now has a ton of sand and mud in it. The water is grey.

Just got the pump running, and we've got a sand filter. Can't see the bottom yet, though earlier on I saw a fair amount of sand
that had blown in. Not sure if it pays to vacuum if you can't see what you're doing.

Any ideas? I know floc is generally bad, but is this an exception? Would some DE sprinkled into skimmers help or is it too early?
