No, my skimmer basket hangs on the rail and is attached to the suction side. The other end (return?) is what the water is spraying out of.
I'm just wondering how you're getting water in the skimmer yet the return jet is still above the water line.

I don't mean to hijack but now I'm worried. I'm sure the answer will be informative to krashhole as well as me.JasonLion said:Aqua Chem Shock is dichlor. Avoid the Aqua Chem Shock Plus if you can, which has additional ingredients you don't really need.
krashhole said:So am I headed in the right direction given the information and the steps I have provided so far? What should I do or add next? I have read through nearly all of the pool school stuff, I guess I just want to make sure I am doing things right so far.
krashhole said:I ended up putting 8oz of Aqua Chem plus in the pool last night after I lowered my PH from 8.2 to 7.5 as well as 26oz of bleach. Using the strips and the drops my FC reading was the same. Still nothing on the CYA reading though. Maybe after adding another 8oz of shock this evening it will start giving me a CYA reading?
Pool readings this morning:
TH 200
FC 5-10?
PH 7.5
TA 180
CYA 0
