    1) I'd say you need a second light farther down the screen.
    2) You need two layers of screen.
    3) The screen needs to be V E R Y rough. Painful rough!

    Clean setup you have there.

    That red material, I can safely say, will do nothing for the turf as regarding helping it stay rooted during cleanings. You really want two of those green layers.

    Put the scrubber after the skimmer. Or just remove the skimmer.

    Two bulbs will give you backup. Otherwise it will be about the same.
