Pool is cloudy but chemical readings seem fine..I'm confused.

Sounds like you're getting an algae bloom. I would shock the pool to 15 ppm using bleach, and hold it there, filter running 24/7, until the pool clears.

Thank you. I thought as much and had actually raised the chlorine to 12 after I posted. I will add more and hold there until clear. I am also concerned about whether I should be adding metal control whenever I add water because of the well. If so, what are good metal control products to use? Are any of the HTH products worth using?

Right now, we've ID'd Jacks Magic Pink Stuff and Proteam Metal Magic as being HEDP based.

HTH has gone over to the "Dark Side" and is playing label and goop games, after the manner of BioGuard. Only use them if you are very clear on what they contain.
