Shelly Ann,
Regarding organics...I think I saw a leaf in the pool...once, but I dove in fully clothed to keep it from actually reaching the bottom of the pool...wouldn't want it to throw off the balance of the water or anything
Nice work! You cleverly avoided what could've been a major problem. As your experience grows, you will learn to leap from the side of the pool and snag 'em mid-air.....just can't be too careful, ya' know?

Serious note....your pool sounds to me like it needs someone swimming in it....not much else.
