Shock will clear the green but may not clear the cloudiness if you wait too long, but the water should still be safe to swim in; have your water tested by your pool professional at least once a week, it's usually free.
You can add 5-10 pounds of borax for every 10,000 gallons of water in your pool. For a 30,000 gallon pool, you would need to add 15-30 pounds of borax to adjust the pH and alkalinity levels. Be sure to test the water after adding borax to ensure the levels are within the recommended range.
For bromine pools, it is recommended to use a non-chlorine shock treatment. This type of shock oxidizes organic contaminants and helps maintain water clarity without affecting bromine levels. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for the specific shock treatment product you choose.

For a 5,000-gallon pool experiencing a chlorine lock, you typically need to add about 1 pound of shock (calcium hypochlorite or sodium dichlor) for every 10,000 gallons of water. Therefore, for a 5,000-gallon pool, you would use approximately 0.5 pounds of shock. It's essential to check the chlorine levels with a test kit before and after shocking to ensure proper balance and effectiveness. Additionally, consider addressing any underlying issues contributing to the chlorine lock.
