I suppose I should have measured it but I really had to ram a Clayton/Lambert 8 x 6 in there and was lucky to get it out. The suction line is actually at the back of the skimmer (right in the photo). I'm half thinking that if I can't get a basket to fit either 1, just leave it as it is as the pool is caged anyway and I can just clean the pump basket as needed or rig up a floating skim a round (even though I hate hoses in a pool).
Any ideas as to what it is?
