Basically for now I just close my valve a little more when I notice the water level has dropped too much. The problem is the ball valve seems to require a fair bit of force to adjust, I end up cranking on it and of course thus end up turning it too much, and it gets to be a game of "whoops way too high now" to "whoops way too low now" just by nudging the ball valve one way or the other.
Once a week to clean it I can live with, I'll have to put a union on the pump hose though because I can't get that hose off the barbs whatsoever! Right now I have to take the hose off the pump and carry the skimmer complete with dripping hose.
