    yes it is common in your situation. i guess you could call it bile. its waste that floats on the surface and it will gather wherever the flow of water takes it. you can stop it by increasing that flow and keeping the water moving

    Thanks Adam, I do have a small one that sits in the water and produces a fairly good stream of water. Should I get a bigger one?

    not necessarily. you may be able to re position it to push the water the direction the pool is collecting. otherwise yes a larger gpm pump should do the trick.

    No film this week. have moved the filter and positioned it so the flow from it breaks the water and the water is more bubbly. seems to be working well!
