I have switched to a salt system this year, and all was fine till a couple weeks ago. I started seeing these tiny perfectly shaped "flowers" in the bottom of my pool. I would get them out only to have them return the next day. Within a day or so, these grew into what is in this picture . They are about 1/4" in diameter and are forming the stacks or came from the stack seen in the center. My pool only requires 1/2 lb of shock, and I put 3 lbs in last weekend. Most of them died, but now I am finding very small stacks of these in the middle of the pool about every few hours. They are about 1/16" diameter. I have even re-shocked the pool with 2 more lbs, and they are still there!!! So far NO ONE has been able to tell me what they are or if they are dangerous in any way. I would like to get rid of them!!!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
