Pond water used to fill pool, NEED HELP!

[sevver]

I have to wonder if the pond water has alot of metals in it. I don't think you can get those out. If it is brownish orange then I would imagine so as I cannot imagine what else would cause that.

Try some metal magic by proteam. Filter 24/7. Metal Magic is supposed to turn metals into a crystal so that it can filter out. I have not tried this yet, so I would be interested in the results. Other than that the only thing to do with metals is to keep them in solution with a metals sequesterer, you never get rid of them but the metals are bound up with the sequesterer and your water is clear. You must always keep sequesterer in the water. High chlorine levels with high ph is what causes metals to precipitate out, coloring the water, or leaving stain on the pool. Once you clear up the water, it is not hard to maintain a pool with metals in the water. Feel free to ask any other questions you have.
