    Borax is not stabilizer, it raises pH. Since your pH is great, you don't need borax right now. You do need chlorine. I'd start with about 4 jugs this evening after the sun is off the pool. Since you have no stabilizer (cyanuric acid or CYA), the sun will "burn up" LOTS of chlorine. If you wait until the sun isn't shining on the pool, ALL the chlorine you add will go to burning up algae. Set your filter to recirculate and run 24/7 till algae is dead.

    Thank you so much. I will do that. Where does the CYA come from?
