    We have a 12ft one and we buy a bottle of baby sterilising fluid and pour the whole thing in. You can get them in the supermarket and poundland for about £1 and usually come in a big blue bottle.
    Last year our pool went green so quickly and was a total chore to empty, clean, refill etc and the pumps are pretty useless, but the fluid we're using this year has fixed that problem!
    Usually put a new bottle in every 7 days or so.


    Thanks for this simplepete. I'm going to get some today!

    Our pool didn't go green, just very cloudy, but there was the start of algae or something forming on the bottom. Hopefully this will do the trick.
