What are the test results on the water that you had done at the pool store? If you don’t have a recent test (within the last day or two) please get a new one done and repost with the readings or you can email them to me at robandliz1992@yahoo.com for more personalized help.
You need to keep running the pump and constantly break down and clean the filter. all the algae you have filtered away is in the cartridge tank and will continue to keep the algae bloom alive. all that algae in the tank will also keep eating through chlorine. once your water is clear, break down your filter one last time.
one last thing. if the pool store doesn’t tell you what I just did, they are only trying to sell you more chems. find a store with better customer service.
We had this problem one spring and solved it by switching to liquid chlorine. My husband added a gallon a day for 3 days with the pump constantly running of course, and on the third day the water was pretty well cleared. After a 4th gallon the pool water tested good and the 5th day we were swimming! Good luck !
