Mother Nature sure has interesting designs for shells…

I’ve been dealing with this issue on picture 5 for 2 months almost. I’ve made progress since I took the picture but it seems like this crap keeps multiplying. It looks like dirt on the bottom of the pool but I know it’s not. I’ve vacuumed as seen in the first two pictures today and came up with this gunk, soft like kinetic sand. I’ve been scrubbing the sides and bottom, got an algaecide/shock capsule that I’ve been running for like 9 days , been thru 3 filters, been running my robot 3 times a day and it’s been picking up this gray substance (pic 4/5), and it seems it never ends. It looks good with minor spots and 2 days later it’s all over the bottom again. I’m at my wits end and really want to *avoid* draining and refilling. Please I need some ID and help.

It looks brown/gray/greenish.. I don’t know exactly what kind it is but it’s been a battle for a couple weeks now.. someone help me out with ID please? Been using my aiper and brush to clean it up and getting a lot of gunk out of the pool but then it settles back down covering the bottom again. When I take the lid off the aiper it’s gray water so I can’t pinpoint what algae I’m dealing with.
