Try running an algaecide through the system as well as shocking it. Algae wouldn't be the problem, it doesn't happen that quick. You have introduced chlorine too early and have corroded the metasl. Next time, filter for 2 days without chlorine, then introduce it slowly.

Shock it with chlorine shock at the rate of 1lb per 10kgal.
How much shock does it take to treat a 16x32 pool?
If you do not want to do complex calculations, you can use non-chlorine shock which is Potassium Monopersulfate. It comes in one pound packages. Throw in 1 lb every two weeks if it is a lightly used pool, 2LB every two weeks if it is a heavier used pool. 3LB if you regularly pee in the pool.
6000 gallon AG pool with a cartridge filter and salt water chlorinator The water turned green and added a bag of shock the water is now milkycloudy How can the water color be fixed?
Although one bag of shock does treat usually 10,00 gallons, that is assuming a clear pool to start with. Since you had an algae infestation, more shock will be required. A simple rule of thumb is when treating problem water to double or even triple shock the pool. Simply put, there wasn't enough shock there to finish the job. Test your water for chorine. Most shocks are chlorine based. If your chlorine is low or zero, it will confirm the need for more shock.
