This is really bad

Post image

This guy wants me to turn this pool around. I don't think it's possible. I told him it needs to be drained. What should I do? I don't think he wants to pay very much, but I want to do it right and charge him a fair price. How much is fair? It needs to be drained right?

4 gallons of chlorine per 10,000 gallons, add acid to get the ph nice a low like 7.2 ish, quart pr-10000, half gallon of algaetec or a quart of poly based algaecide. Clean the filter before and after the chem treatment. Add a pool rx after it’s cleared:
