It may kill the algae but the algae needs to be filtered or the pool will remain green and cloudy

You need to dissolve the chlorine and pour around the pool then brush the pool in order to not damage your plaster.

This will help get the chlorine throughout the pool.

not a good idea - the whole point of shock is to circulate it through the system

What are the advantages of flocculent vs clarifier for clearing up pool water?

From what I gather from reading the back of the bottle of Clarifier that I use in my pool a Clarifier is a Flocculent. The clarifier contains a polymer that attracts the smaller particles floating around in the pool that are too small to be filtered through some filtration systems. As the clarifier attracts the smaller particles it becomes large enough for the filtration system to filter it out of the water thus clariying the pool water.

You used 32 ounces of clarifier to your 30 round above ground pool for cloudiness The pool still looks cloudy what do you do?

If you are running the pump and filter for a few short hours it will never clear up no matter how much clarifier you add. Clean the filter first then run the pump for 24/7 until you can see and read a quarter at the main drain of your pool ~ or the deep end if you have no M/D. Adjust the chemicals as needed and follow allthe instructions on the clarifier bottle. Chlorine needs to be at of above3.5 to 5.0 or higher. pH at 7.6; Alkalinity at 80 - 120. k
