I cannot believe I need to ask this, but here goes. I have the pool buster and pool rover which work great, but I also want to get a regular pool vacuum. Here is my question. What do I need to get to hook things up? I can find the obvious vacuum heads and hoses, but do I need something to hook up to my skimmer as well or how does this work?

I have a 24' above ground with sand filter.

I am laughing at this, but I have never had to hook this style up.
