Hi! After weeks of trying to make my green pool clear and after having the chemicals balanced for two weeks I decided to use flocculent. I have an oval 18 by 33 above ground sand filter pool and I put the flocculent in last night. The flocculent as of tonight has still not dropped to the bottom of the pool and now some local frogs have decided to take a dip. So I have three question: why hasn’t the floc dropped yet? Two: will the frogs swimming mess with the floc? And three what do I do if the floc never drops?? I can’t turn the filter on with it in there, correct? Thank you so much for any help you can provide!!
