Get yourself some Scum Socks and put them in your strainer basket. They are great for picking up the small stuff your filter might be missing.

They cost about $10 for three or four and well worth the investment.

No skimmer? Are you sure? I've never seen a pool without one. It's where the water goes into when the pump runs.

You got to have a skimmer or I would think you should. Unless you have one of the donught pools.

Hey do youi know where i can get 1? cause the only pool store i got is wal mart :)

let me know

[waterbear]

I've seen them at Walmart in N. Fl so it might be something they all carry! It was in a pack of 3 but I don't remember the price.:(

[Tootie]

I just picked me some up at The Local Walmart 3 for $9.99.
You can use them for quit some time,just take and rinse them out if they get real nasty, and put them back on....

Like can you explain or get a pic lol

[Tootie]

If you have the skimmer like The one u posted on ur link,all you have to do is,pull the sock over the little basket.And Maybe weigh it down a lil with a clean rock...Hope this helps.If I figure out how to post a pic I will do..lol
