    New pool owner from Oz

    TFP has become such a quality resource mate over here just pops in to say 'I sorted it all out' before ever saying hi. Legend. STRAYA BROS All my pool questions in google now I add 'TFP' to the query. Really saves swimming through the trash that has become google.

    I have the same broken return. Snapped off ages ago. I got a piece of conduit, stuck it in the return and tied a rope to it pulling the conduit up out of the pool and tied it off somewhere. This worked perfect. PH changes quick doing this so watch it.

    Filter is running. Of course one o-ring just teleported out of there, so i dodgy'd up a replacement from a condom I pulled from the filter. It's holding...again... At first it failed to backwash. Bit of googling TFP and saw one guy say there was just too much air in pipes to over come...

    Even with the pump and filter offline for 24 hours it looks clearer than ever. About to give up on ever seeing clear water from sand and put her back together. Much thanks!

    Well I’ve answered the question of whether we live in a simulation. Don’t care how advanced our creators would need be. There is no amount of GPUs that could simulate that number of particles. I just flushed out more Crud than there are stars in the universe easily.

    If only I'd got this advice in my teens maybe I wouldn't look like two-face but without the nice side or an acid attack victim. 'Starting with the most corrosive' I just called "exfoliating". I imagine i would've somehow exploded my pool by this point without all your guidance EVERYONE in...
