I'll post them soon. Just finished a good cleaning of the inside and will start filling it today.
Thanks again.

Well, that didn't work as well as I would have liked.
The small filter pump hoses must go over the side due to not having any existing holes and this creates a problem with the natural pressure of the water helping the pump.
Long story short........ The basket collect a small amount of debris, but not nearly enough to warrant the costs.
I can't believe Intex doesn't offer some type of product to skim their Ultraframe pools.
But I'm nothing if not persistant and will figure something out if it kills me. LOL
Thanks again for the help though.
ps. Can someone explain why new members do not get access to the archives? I think it would save a lot of hassle for the moderators if we could look through previously answered questions, saving them much time re-answering the same thing.

Where are you not able to look? Have you tried using the Google search in the bottom of mine or Ben's signature blocks?

If you are referring to the status of *Trial* members, the reason is that as many as 10% of new members on any given day are actually spammers. Some of those guys, if they get in, will post 100 or more times in a single hour, before one of us can catch it, creating situation that's very time consuming to resolve. Ironically, using the current gateway process, they usually don't even bother to post, since the New User section is not public, and not visible to Google.
I've tried many things over the years to keep spammers out, but this current gateway process has been far and away the most effective.

Regarding the skimmer, you may want to look at this Intex video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDxh4nwmY7I
As you can see, their skimmer is intended to connect where the side drain is.

That's a lot like the one I had. It does work.
