I wanted to fill the pool in about 5 years ago when it needed a new liner and nobody but me was doing the maintenance. Wife overruled me saying the grandkids love it and she would help maintain. Well, yes the wife, kids and grandkids are in it everyday but I've still yet to get help with maintenance.
The only time I have problems with water turning green is if I add chlorine the same time I add town water. Our town water is high in iron, magnesium and chlorine.
Rain water has zero effect as long as ph,and chlorine levels are correct.
Last night's rain had no effect and while picture dosen't look it ( sun angel and tree foliage shadow) its crystal clear right now and not a chemical bath.
I'm glad we didn't fill it in and we actually have plans to build a bathhouse attached.
Weather, PERFECT !!
