Fiberglass saltwater pool. Recently added calcium and about a week later also shocked it after large party. We have been noticing an increase in what looks like sand settling on the tanning ledge and the steps mostly, but a little on bottom of pool in deeper end. What is this and what could be the cause and how do we fix (if we need to)?
 
Post pictures of the pool and problem material, and your equipment pad - could be DE or sand from filter issue, dead algae cells, etc.
TFP methods don't require "shocking" but rather keeping proper chlorination.
