Dichlor is somewhat acidic. Trichlor (sometimes sold as powder) is HIGHLY acidic. May be the cause of your pH problem.

I haven't used anything except bleach since that first time. Would that still be affecting it?

Re: Pool opening - 2013
I'm continuing to deal with cloudy water. My skimmer sock keeps getting less and less dirty through the day so I hope that means it's slowly clearing out.
I've been keeping my chlorine at 20--it's been several weeks now. Is it safe to have it at shock level for so long?

Finally saw the bottom of the pool for the first time this morning!

Re: Pool opening - 2013
For me the cloudy stage of cleaning up a green pool can vary from a few days to much longer and I have to remind myself to be logical and that it will clear! I keep the chlorine levels up at a good level until it is clear as well. Don't know if that is official BBB protocal, but it works for me - no algae rebounds in my pool!
