half a gallon of the 60 percent blue bottle of green yellow black algaecide with clarifier, enough of acid or base to bring to normative, and enough chlorine shock to bring your ppm up to 4. then, brush the dead algae every couple of hours, vaccuum, and backwash. easy peasey lemon squeezy.
(dealt with several this summer. massvie amounts of trees plus blowing dust. kills the chlorine. for acid rain, try a salt water chlorinator. adds some base, is more self stabilized. ) On 11/29/06, Terry Blanton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

I don't have a problem until late July or August. At that time, the acid rain falls. If you miss adjusting the total alkalinity just one day, you have an algae bloom. You ever have an algae bloom? Very expensive and time consuming. Terry
