Any pool can have copper. Source water may have it in it. Some pools have copper plumbing. Most pool heaters have copper heat exchangers. If your pH or Alkalinty levels are lower than recommended, then the copper in the plumbing or heater can be stripped out and stain the pool plaster a bluish-green color. Some allgaecides even use copper which will also stain. You should also take care using copper algaecide in salt water pools as they may cause problems with the chlorinators.
Many stains can be removed with alcohol.

Using muriatic acid on a fiberglass boat is not recommended as it can damage the surface. It's best to use a cleaner specifically designed for fiberglass to remove paint stains. Test a small, inconspicuous area first before proceeding with the entire stain.
Fiberglass won't take stain. You need to get all the flaking paint off, scuff the surface and then paint with an enamel type paint. A yacht supply store will set you up.
Some of the equipment needed to properly maintain a fiberglass pool include vinyl vacuum and stain-out eraser tool. You should also invest in a screen for your pool.
I don't know about fiberglass but I got wood stain on my nearly-white carpet and it came right up using hydrogen peroxide. It didn't bleach out the carpet either! Hope that helps.
Cobalting is what the black spots on fiberglass pools is called. This occurs when the gel finish on the pool begins to break down. You can remove the old gel coating and apply a new one.
no! it also doesn't fade them like chlorine (or your skin, hair ...)
Yes there are paints available for pools. I have never heard of a stain for pools though. Pebble surface pools don't "loose" their color. What you may be experiencing is a dull calcium or mineral deposit. Deposits can sometimes be cleaned with an acid wash. If it is very bad it can be blasted off by a tile cleaner.
There is a component of some brands of chlorine that can cause a black coating to come over the bottom of fiberglass pools. To remove it I recommend several bottles (3-5) of Regal Stain Remover (or any comprable brand). Let the stain remover set for an hour before scrubbing the black off. If this doesn't work, it's always a good idea to contact your local pool professional. In Dallas, TX Pure Pools is your best bet. Good luck.
