    If you go to Home Depot or Lowes you can get a rubber adapter that will fit over the skimmer and the pvc. It has two hose clamps one on each side. It works great and limits vibrations. It is often with the sump pump plumbing.

    That same rubber adapter is used to make permanent repairs in damaged PVC (like when the HVAC guy damaged a tub drain over my kitchen!).

    There are also PVC fittings that allow you to go to clamp-on hoses. It's usually an end cap with female threads. You then screw your clamp-on fitting into it, with lots of tape dope and you are good to go.
