Sounds as if you did not filter the pool water for at least 24 hours before adding chlorine. You also may have added too much chlorine at one time. That brown is iron and if you did not react to it immediately it will most likely be somewhat perminant. If pool is plaster a light acid wash will usually correct. The acid wash can be done in two ways; with the water in the pool, sometimes called a no drain acid wash or pump out water and acid wash in the regular manner. Must be professionally done.
Sorry to hear of you rmisfortune.

Why wouldn't you be able to get a cl reading if your pool is sparkling clear?
clear water does not equal chlorine. a well ballanced pool with proper PH, cl2, ALCALLINITY and HARDNESS will accualy have a light blue tinge to it. a proper test kit that checks free, total and combined CL2 WOULD BE A GOOD INVESTMENT OVER A STRIP TEST.
Why would clear pool water turn yellow when a chlorine tablet was added?
I think it has to do with the hardness of the water, (presence of calcium, magnesium, etc. that get oxidized by the chlorine and make the water yellow). Looking for a solution myself as I have well water.

Your pool is clear but will not register chlorine?
How old are the test solutions or test strips? Replace if left in the sun or more than a year old. Do you have a chlorine odor? If yes, shock. Has the filter been cleaned recently? If not, clean. Do you have a chlorine stabilizer or conditioner added to the pool? If not add until residual is about 50 to 70 ppm. Add more chlorine and test for correct pH and alkalinity. Adjust if needed. Increase time on pump for the summer. Ken
Can you use Clorox in your 10x30 pool to clear the water?
You could, but you won't save money unless the bleach is free. Chlorine for pools is much more concentrated plus it has stabalizers in it. A: Clorox is 5% strong. Liquid Pool Chlorine is 12.5% May cost more but is much stronger and will take less to do the job. Liquid chlorine in any brand or strength will not have stabilizers in it. Those have to be added seperately. You can buy dry chlorine and that will have stabilizers in it. but you will not get the quick reaction for your algae problems with it. k
