    Default Re: Metal in the water (Fiberglass 35K pool)

    Hey guys!

    After my stain returned I thought I could ignore it, but today it looks so bad that I can't ignore it anymore. In addition to the metal on the walls and floor now I have these spots that don't come off with the brush. I don't know if it's a metal or something else, but when I drop ascorbic acid on it it desappears.

    Does ascorbic acid removes algea? Because chlorine couldn't remove it.

    My Chl=13 PPM I tried to keep it in that range during 3 days.
    PH= 7.2 PPM
    Total Chl= 13 PPM
    CYA=25-30

    I am attaching picture of this ugly stain.

    Please throw in some ideas.

    Thanks,
    B.
