    I been fighting with algae for a few weeks now and it just keeps getting worse. I have shock it and shock it but no luck, the pool store told me to drain it and start over, but I said that wasn`t a good option for me, so they gave me a bottle of 32oz. algae control 60, and four gallons of liquid shock to try. I have a sand filter hayward and a 24x52 about 15000 gals.
    free chlorine 7.3ppm
    total chlorine 7.3ppm
    combined chlorine 0.0ppm
    ph7.7
    hardness 210ppm
    alkalinity 0ppm which I got on my test strips that this was 120ppm
    cyanuric acid 90ppm
    copper 0.04 ppm
    iron 0.09
