    I tested the skimmer yesterday morning (shut off the skimmer return and used green dye to check for leaks). I had a small 1/4" hairline crack and used a two part underwater pool epoxy to fix. After allowing couple hours for epoxy to set, turned skimmer back on and proceeded to do bucket test. This morning the pool level had dropped 1/8", bucket 3/16". Problem solved!!
