Hi! Green scum in water on top of pool tarp cover (could not buy the expensive cover yet!). The wind is fierce on our hill and threatened to blow the tarp off all winter so we had to keep a water level on the surface to keep it from sailing away.
So now we have 1-2 feet of green scum water blooming on top of tarp. Here's the question: should we pump it off first, shock the remainder on top, then have it opened? I am thinking if we shock the top before opening, the treated water drained off will kill the grass...
Thanks for any tips!!!

PS-- To get off water off tarp (we were siphoning it off when it was low levels), what type of pump/vacuum set up do you recommend??? I am open to suggestions!! Bailing it off will take to long....
