Jack's Filter Fiber

PSA
If you have a skimmer sock in your basket, do not put a slurry of filter fiber in expecting it to get to your filter. It stayed in my skimmer sock for ~ 24 hrs. ??

I'll try pouring the slurry into the skimmer without the basket next time.
Not sure if hairnet would do the same, but i suspect it would.

(Should this be in chemicals?)

Why are you putting filter fiber in your sand filter? What is filter fiber?

It is supposed to be better than DE for sand filters. I use it to aid in grabbing any iron particles possible. Our stone coping is shedding brown (I guess iron ore) into the pool and on top of the iron in the fill water has made iron stains an ongoing battle for the new plaster. It was a recommendation in some of my reading here.

Need stain advise

Need to give a history to help understand..Last year I had new plaster with the blue chips installed..Never looked right even though the guy said it takes a while. After 8 months, last November he said the top coat wasn't wearing off and they needed to acid wash it so I drained it..Between me...
