Default pools - slightly off topic

That was the point I was making as well. Algae is just a simple plant,
but it is the vector for many different type of highly toxic bacteria
which is found in blow up pools.

g'day rae,

those type of child waders are meant to be emptied out between uses,
to effectively keep pool water safe and clear you would need to have a
pump and filter system and add chlorine that way. the algae build up
might be the least of health worries it is the bacteria build up you
can't see to be concerned about.

the best you can do to conserve water is fill it fresh when needed and
use that water after his swim for the gardens.
