With a CC of 1.2, get that chlorine up to 25--the more consistently you keep it there, the quicker the water will clear. Might want to consider draining and replacing about 1/2 your water, if that's feasible for you--it'll make your pool care much easier for this summer. You can still keep it good at CYA of 100, but it's gonna be much more expensive and time consuming than it will be at 50.
