Good morning,
So i have had my 15ft round above ground pool since last year. This year when i opened it up everything seemed grate. Two hours later this brown dirt spots started to show up. I have went to two different pool places toe help me get rid of it. I have spent more money than i care to say. I was told i had mustard alge. I scrubbed, I vacuumed, i added chemical after chemical. I finally got fed up. I found this site. My T 2006 kit came yesterday. One issue i have had was very high stabilizer. This was verified by both places. I verified it to last night. I started adding the mixture and the black dot disappeared as i was looking down on it. Didn't even get to 100 mark. So last night i got rid of more than 50 percent of my pool water and added it back today.
So this morning i started the pump. I did a CYA today this morning and once again the dot disappeared almost immediately. Didn't get to 100. So either i need to wait and let everything mix, i did something wrong or I'm not sure what.
I also the the combined chlorine test. Took the sample deep this morning. Added the powder and turned pink right away. Added the next step (Sorry i don't know this stuff off the top of my head yet) 9 drops later the water turned clear. Next step started to add 5 drops per a video i saw on Tyler and it was supposed to turn pink again, which it didn't . So again, not sure if im doing something wrong or i was just low on chlorine?
I do have a frog system, and after reading the forums i took it our of the mix last night. I'm going to use the BBB program from now on.
Any help would be great.
Thank You
