Question:

Checked on above ground pool after returning home from trip only to find dark green water and lots of baby tadpoles. What to do?


Answer:

The first step will be to get as many of the solids (including tadpoles) out of the water manually as possible either by netting or vacuuming to waste. Then you will need algaecide and shock (following the algaecide instructions) to kill the algae and turn the dark green pool back to clear and blue.
