The same thing happened to me after I add chlorine to my pool. However, it disappears after about an hour. I have read that it has something to do with copper from an algacide and the addition of chlorine.

Longer filter cycles.

You might try adding more chlorine -=- larger doses after filtering for 24 hrs.. You are seeing the results of dead algae at this point. Back wash the filter once the pool looks clear. CLEAR means clear enough so that you can see and read a quarter on the bottom of the pool.
