Hi Simon,

I feel that you should place your filter wool in a way that covers all 4 sides.

So the dirty things won't be able to pass thru. You'll have a hard time cleaning later on if it stuck at the bottom.

I place my wool tuck nicely and the excess is all facing up. If you get what I mean.

Your skimmer might need to lift it up. Might be too high to break in
