keep with slam until you meet ALL 3 end of slam criteria-Water is super clear but it always has been just all the algae is gone there are a couple of sort of faint pink spots that used to be green algae spots so I'm probably going to give it another day and throw in another jug of chlorine
You are done when:


AND

(Crystal Clear w/no algae dead or alive)
Do ALL the things

*Check & scrub every nook & cranny where algae may hide {light niches, steps (inside & out), drain covers, ladder handrails, skimmer throats/weirs, abandoned lines, autofill, overflow drains, seam flaps, etc.}
*If water can go there, algae can thrive there.
*Run slam level water through all water features & lines for at least a couple hours a day during the SLAM Process.
*Brush & or vac daily (this breaks up biofilms that algae uses to protect itself from chlorine)
*Backwash/clean filter when pressure rises 25%over clean pressure.
