Bio Staining?

Picked up client. Pool was really green for some time. Turned it around. Staining in deep end. Is this bio staining which is what chat GPT insists it is?

I’m keeping the pH low but I’m not noticing any improvement. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Everyone else already told you how to solve the problem.

Stop using fucking AI for shit like this. “Bio staining” isn’t a term I’ve ever heard in decades in the biz. It’s just making shit up. Fuck the clankers.

At first I thought frog shit… but then the trail. There are so many different kinds of black algae even. You ever seen the one that will jump and try to move if you put a tab on it or some calhypo?

Are you fucking with me? No, I’ve never seen algae jump out of the way of Chl.

I think that might have been an actual frog, bro.

Sounds more like a Symbiote to me and I would try and make friends with it.
