To remove yellow chlorine stains from a swimsuit use a cloth that has been soaked in white vinegar to dab on the stains. The vinegar will help dissolve the stains. Hand wash the swimsuit when the stains are gone.

I assume you are talking about swimming-pool chlorine-donor disinfectant. If so, if it is used properly it will not leave stains - but if the pool has been over-dosed or used too soon after shock-dosing, or the neat chemical has been splashed onto the garment, then it may attack the textile's dye or yarn. The only pool chemical I can think of that might leave a yellow stain is hydrochloric acid (pH reducer) - but why would you have a stain from that on your swim-suit?

My guess is that the staining is from something else, perhaps some dissolved mineral or other in the water (rust from steel water-mains perhaps?), but by all means still try the vinegar.

I would say, unless you have a pressure washer, you should just buy a new one.
They're not that expensive.

What are three main groups of algae?

---- Green Algae: A very common variety, It is often found floating free in the water, and also clings to the pools walls. Unlike severe copper precipitation green algae reduces water clarity, Green algae's also appear as "spots" on surfaces, in rough places, or areas where circulation is low.Yellow Algae: This variety of algae clings to walls and is also referred to as mustard algae. It is generally found on the shady side of the pool, is sheet forming, and difficult to eradicate completely. This variety is resistant to normal chlorine levels and requires extra effort to eradicate.Black Algae: the hardest algae to get rid of, Black algae has a root system and a protective waxy coating that makes eradication extremely difficult. Black algae appears as dark black or blue/green spots, about 3 or four millimetres across, They have roots that can extend into the plaster or tile grout, ----

What is a kinds of fish eat algae?

Most fish will not eat only algae, and will eat anything else you put in and leave the algae untouched, instead. If you want to add something to a tank in order to get rid of algae, I recommend a snail or some shrimp. Or you could take a clean rag and wipe it off the tank.


If you have a severe black algae problem that you have been mitigating for years and can't get rid of can getting a very dark blue liner help to hide the black algae stains?

In a word ~ NO. If the algae bloom is that severe maybe a replaster is in order. Sounds like you need to be more diligent on chemistry in the pool along with proper filtration among other things. Sounds like a problem of neglect. Black algae will bore into the plaster unlike green algae. It is very difficult to get rid of especially on rough plaster. You cannot cover over it or paint over it. Oh, the dark blue liner or any liner can and will cover and hide the algae problem but you will still have the algae problem and in fact compound the problem. The algae could bore through the new liner and then where will you be - - right back in the same boat. k


What is the cause of green algae in pool?

Algae are a very simple type of plant, and like all plants they need water, food, and sunlight. There are different types, the most common being one of the varieties of green, but there is also yellow "mustard" algae, and the dreaded "black" algae which is hard to get rid of. Chlorine, Bromine, or an alternative like Baquacil is added to a pool to make it a hostile environment for algae and bacteria. If the chemical composition of the water is kept properly, algae shouldn't be able to grow in a pool. However, if the chemical level drops too far, algae can grow. They feed on phosphates and other trace chemicals in the water, and use the energy from sunlight to "power" their food-making process. One way that algae can get a "jump-start" is if there is organic debris in the pool like leaves, grass clippings, flower petals, etc. This organic debris is a prime source of fresh algae spores, and it will also react with the chlorine or other purifying chemical in the water, in effect using it up, causing the chemical levels to drop. To avoid this double-whammy, daily get organic debris out of the pool and skimmer baskets. If you have an algae problem in your pool, see your local pool store for chemicals to "shock" the pool by boosting the chlorine content briefly, an algaecide for the specific type of algae you have, and a treatment to remove the phosphates from the water to prevent future algae growth. NEGLECT.

What is black alge IN A POOL?

Black Algae grows in small spots generally up to about 40mm in size. It grows on pool surfaces and is very difficult to remove as it forms in layers when extra chlorine is added to kill it only the top layer is effected and the rest stays as good as new. Black algae can be found in bathrooms between tiles and silicone seals, aquariums on the glass, and in the ocean. Black algae is the toughest algae to get rid of and is very resistant to chlorine.
