just moved in house pull uncovered for at least a year. water was a nasty green color. I got the pump to filter and put some shock in the pool and some bleach and some stuff called flock it. I have got the levels up. the Ph level is around 7.2 the FAC is 0 the TA is 30 the CYA is 0 the TDS is 400 copper/iron is 0 and the phosphates are 0. i have gotten the water to like a real light green what should i be looking to do to raise levls and get the water clear. I have gotten most of the stuff off the bottom of the pool

You'll want to keep your pH down to about 7.0, and raise your alk. to 80-100, and CA to about 50-70, then blast it again with chlorine. If it's a real nasty green, not a nice forest green, get the chlorine to 20-25ppm.


Backwash every day to ensure you're getting the algae out of the filter. Cartridge, clean it. DE, be sure to recoat the grids each time you backwash, sand =backwash.
