We added to much algecide and the pool got cloudy. We have tried a clarifier and shock but its not helping. We have also ran the pump for 2 days and cleaned the filter 3 time.

We just had the same problem, we changed all the water and made sure to keep up on the chem. levels.
sorry it sucks, I know.

I grew up with a pool. I think leaving it alone is the best thing. My dad did that all the time and allowing the chemicals time to dissipate always brought the pool back into normal range and the water clear.

you need time.... Let it filter about 3 days, change the earth everyday.. The algaecide is overloaded in the water or the algae is now dead and need filtered out... Algae takes time... make sure everything is filtering properly... keep the cover OFF

wait until the sun goes down and add your chlorine. that should help. also you should add your algecide in the morning hours while the sun is out that is when the algae blooms open. it may just take a few more days. call your local pool store.
