So sad, I opened my pool yesterday and it is full of algae. I've been doing the BBB method for the last 4 years and have always opened to sparkling water. Oh well.....

Here are my numbers:

FC .2
TC .2
CC 0
TA 99
pH 7.7
CYA 17

above ground vinyl, 8200 gallons

My plan is to lower the pH to 7.2 and then start dumping in bleach to keep it at shock level until the FC holds. Does that sound right? I am going to put some stabilizer in a sock and hang it over the return valve - when should I do that?

Any other pieces of advice?

We were hoping to swim this weekend :insert sad face here:
