One other thing you may want to try that will clear the water very rapidly is Aluminum Sulphate. You would only need about 2-5 kilos and could get it whereever food spices/canning supplies are sold under the name Alum....It is used to keep vegetables crisp when canned.
It won't be the least expensive way to get Alum, but you only need a small amount. If your water PH is at 8.2 (Calcium Carbonate Maximum) you should not need to worry about the PH being lowered when you add the alum. Just add it slowly mixed well in clean water.
When applied at the right concentration, it will turn your water crystal clear in under 24 hours.
