Anyone with a fairly small (14ft x 3ft) above ground pool out there? We just bought it new a few days ago. We filled it directly from the brook running through our property, which resulted in rust colored water with some fine debris settling at the bottom.

The first thing I did once it was full was to put in Super Shock & let the pump & filter do it's thing for several hours. I had also bought some algaecide & stupidly decided it wouldn't hurt to add some of that. It became cloudy as milk almost immediately. Too late, I realized that I didn't need it, the super shock has it already in it & I REALLY didn't need to add almost 3 times what a pool my size needs.

So, I have let the pump run steady for three days & added another dose of shock & two gallons of bleach around 3pm yesterday afternoon. Woke up this morning to zero change. so I shut the pump off. The water is very blue but very cloudy, you can just barely see the bottom of the pool. I have also replace the filters twice.

I am so mad at myself for adding the algaecide, it was clearing up nicely with just the shock. Please offer suggestions of what I can do to clear it up quickly, we really were hoping to swim in it this weekend.
