Happy to hear about getting the water clear...Just follow the BBB guide and you will have great water all summer. So what did you do about the holes?

Didnt do anything about the little holes on the bottom yet. Ive got some bigger fish to fry. The skimmer has a pretty noticable leak on the outside and I think its due to one of the screw holes being corroded to the point where it is letting water through. I have been using duct tape to plug this up, but it only works for a day or two until the tape gives way and I have to retape. I was reading through this site for a while tonight and I think I'm going to try some teflon tape next. If this doesnt work, I think I'll silicone it. Also, sometimes the sand filter leaks at seemingly random places, sometimes at the top, other times at the middle. Only sometimes.. very weird.
