If it is genuine 'black algae' it is very difficult to remove without emptying the pool and gouging the black algae out of the pool surface. Other algae can be removed by shocking the pool, filtering continuously and brushing walls while maintaining a good sanitizer level.
Probably not. Since "Black algae" has a crusty layer over it you will need to use something abrasive to break open the spores. Get a product that says "for black algae" We usually increase the chlorine levels too (if no one is using the pool)
how can i remove algae from my pool liner, I have treated the water but algae remains on my liner
For marcite or plaster finish - Acid Wash. Google "acid wash" . Also Pumice stone will srub off black or green algae.
They have a black line through their body and the top half is light brown and the bottom half is creamy.
Try bottom cleaners, algae eaters, black moors, and guppies for sure.

Some of the types of algae are staghorn algae, black brush or beard algae, green spot algae, and green thread hair algae. Other types of algae are green water algae, and black green algae.
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.
yes
They look like tiny black specks about the size of your pinky finger. The normally swim around on the bottom, just like their mom would.
