Any ideas?

My water is clear now but I have been having this constant issue this year. There is 3 jets on the pool it’s in all 3 areas I zoomed in. This pool is usually circulating or just flowing way more than this and the water is just standing still jets won’t hardly blow. We had a tiny air leak and one of the jets would constantly blow bubbles but we fixed that and everyday it still is like this. My filter is clean, skimmer is clean, lines are brand new. It will blow a good amount right after you backwash it then 30 minutes later it goes back to stand still. I also feel like the skimmer isn’t pulling water as good as usual. Also I have a Hayward 300lb sand filter and when I first opened the algae was clogging it so it would get up to 30 psi I would backwash it but my psi even with clean water now is 20psi but every day I go out it’s at 30psi and I have to backwash to get down to 20psi and I have read that it should be around 10-15psi. I’m at a loss I’ve checked everything I can think of so wanted to see if any of you guys knew anything?!

Help

Had the pool open for a week ended up having an air leak in the pump got that fixed so water is now circulating and not just sitting still. So far I have added 5lbs of shock granules, 32oz algaecide and 3lbs of stabilizer. Our pool is not budging from this color. I had this same issue last year and ended up spending more money on chemicals than I should have so don’t want to do it again this year.
