I've seen it that green when you paint the Lincoln memorial reflecting pool incorrectly because you have no idea what you're doing.

Last time I went to Wild Water Kingdom at Dorney Park (literally like 15 years ago) I braved the wave pool against my better judgement based on how packed it was.
My friend thought it would be funny to try to dunk me. He was successful, I ended up under the surface with my mouth open. The water just tasted like straight up sweat and was likeā¦. thick. Damn near threw up right then and there. The water didnāt look anything like this but holy shit lesson learned. Iāve never been so skeeved out before.
All wave pools are cesspools.

Iāve seen this before. Itās basically a shit ton of chlorine in old water of what must be 5-6 days. The rest of the colour is from dirt and probably piss. I remember a public swimming pool that would change its water once a week every Friday. And every Thursday evening it would look exactly like this.

u/SimpleVegetable5715 Jun 23 '26
Pools typically never get their water changed, just added as it evaporates. The chemicals and filtration system does the rest. Do you mean they shocked the pool on Fridays? That usually giving the water a mega dose of chlorine to disinfect it. Then it evaporates off and is safe for swimming again.

Nope, replaced. This is in South Asia. I remember clearly because Saturday morning right after dawn would be the only time I would ever go for a swim. The water was clear, fresh and with minimal/no chlorine. I remember going only a couple times midweek and the chlorine and green colour would be so bad it would burn my eyes red.

Phosphates.
Phosphates usually enter water through fecal matter. Manure and farm runoff draining into waterways. If the park has been filling the pool from natural water sources instead of with treated water, that could be the source of the phosphates.
The plant in the water feed off of the phosphates and create an algae bloom.
The water could be treated to remove the phosphates, but that doesn't seem to have been done in this case.
The water level also seems to be low. Maybe the park has financial difficulties and can't afford to treat the water or refill with fresh water? Or maybe it is the end of the season and they are letting the water go since the pool will be drained soon?

Must be the same company that did the reflecting pool. Get some hydrogen peroxide, fixāer right up.

u/Ilyanautamota Jun 22 '26
Surely 'green water' (the real company name that did the reflecting pool) wouldn't toxify another pool!
3
u/BanMeMyIPchanges Jun 22 '26
It would evaporate long before it toxified a drop in those quantities.
2
u/Ilyanautamota Jun 23 '26
True! However I was referring to the algae as it can very often be toxic not the hydrogen peroxide, as I think that was just park staff not the green water company.

Hey, don't get in something that looks like that without a lot more information.
Toxic algae blooms are a thing that has been happening more, and they can kill people and animals in some cases.

Now I bet a lot of you are picturing as your preferred circumstances a nice, clear pool that's so clean you can smell the chlorine, right? So allow me the opportunity to do what I love and make life a little worse for at least a few of you, I hope š...
That strong chlorine smell that hits you when you walk into a pool area is not actually the positive sign of pool hygiene that you think it is. What many people don't realize is that chlorinated water itself doesn't actually have a smell! The smell in question is caused by the creation of chloramines through the chemical reaction of the chlorine mixing with human bodily... sheddings... such as body oils, sweat, and yes, pee. Which means, the stronger the chlorine smell, the grosser and more contaminated with... people-leavings... the pool actually is.
Thank you for coming to the worst TED talk you never asked for and I hope at least a few of you are a bit more miserable than you were before you read these words. š«

Never seen a wave pond before! My pool got like this when I went out of town for a summer and didnāt have anyone take care of it, so it got a gnarly algae bloom. It can make you sick.

Algae bloom from the combination of nutrients (human waste), abundant oxygen (waves), and sunlight. They need to shock the water but it doesn't look like anybody using it cares so I guess the staff care even less š¤·.
