Yeah looks pretty but we could NOT see the bottom at all.
So after getting the water tested at the store they recommended 15lbs of Alk Increaser and one of those Pool Life, Back To Blue kits. We were told it had a flocking agent to it and that it would also take out any metals we had. Not sure if any of that is true as we don't know what was/is in it.
We added the alk increaser first, then container 1 of the BTB system.....ran it for an hour then added container 2......ran that for an hour then shut the pool down for 48 hours at which time we were told everything would be dead and sinking to the bottom. And it pretty much was. From there I just brushed, vacuumed, and cleaned the filters multiple times a day every day this week. Also added a sock to the skimmer basket to collect the fine particles and have left the filter running 24/7 for now. Other than that we did nothing chemical-wise but remove the pucks from our auto feeder and just added 1 gallon of bleach yesterday and one today so far.
This is the stuff:
