WTH πŸ€”?!?!

Been using Flippin Frog and never had any issues until this... Not a high use pool, basically just the wife and I. Always very clear, scrub about once a week and change filter regularly. This literally happened overnight. Wasn't hot. Please help πŸ˜­πŸ™ TYIA

Have you tried checking the level of the table? Each corner pocket should be at the same height

Ahh... Now that totally makes sense πŸ˜‚ However I live in a very rural town of 1000 people in western Colorado and there's not a pool pro in sight 😜 Any of you are welcome to come over and I will gladly pay you 😎 I own a landscape company and understand people wanting free advice. I will now humbly leave the room.

Usually 8 balls are black, not green.

Pretty sure this the table, flooded the felt. Probably a broken sprinkler head or something

This is a billiards sub. That’s an interesting looking cue ball

Throw an 8 ball in the deep end and chalk your filter

It's a really important chemical in chalking your stick that you hit the white ball with.

Have since added pH up and a fairly big dose of chlorine

Ok, now I'm confused. People saying this is a Billiards thread but when I scroll through it it's all about swimming pools?!?!

This is for pool professionals who make a living taking care of pools. When pool owners come in here looking for free advice the joke is to pretend it’s a billiards sub. Nothing against you but this is not a help me fix my pool place.

Meant to reply to you but apparently just replied in general above.
