Indoor pool. Orig truck fill, new fiberglass pool in march. I top off with well water, shallow well, originally for greenhouse makes pool murky for a day or so. I erroneously had fc at 10 for about 2 mo earlier this year(didnt realize i should turn off and not just lower swg), a few weeks ago turned swg off to lower fc, took 2 weeks to go from 5 to 1, then I turned swg back on at 11%, it's back up to 5 after 20 days, slowly creeped up. I add muriatic acid as needed to lower ph, every week or 2. Brush daily and vac as needed.
I've noticed this blackish stuff in pool, orig thought dirt from dog or kids, but no one's been using pool couple of days other than me testing. And I vac up stuff in hot tub area, but it's back and worse.
Not sure if algae. Not sure how to treat/fix this.
If it is algae ,should slam, and anytime I top off should I add lc or just raise swg % to prevent this? I normally just let pump/swg run 24-48hrs after adding h2o.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Suzy
