How do you vacuum leaves and algae from the bottom of pool if your lines keep clogging and if you cannot scoop because the water becomes murky?

Might want to look into getting a leaf canister for your vacuum and for the algae get an algaecide and add it to the water before you vacuum.
The best gizmo I've found for vacuuming leaves off the bottom is an attachment that you hook your garden hose to and turn on the water full blast. This thing has a basket on it and the water rushing over it cause it to vacuum leaves and twigs... very strong and efficient on the bottom of the pool. You attach it to your extension pole to control where it goes and it has little rollers on it to make it easy to move around. The only thing you have to watch out for is if you don't attach the bag well it can come off and spill what you have collected. I threw away the twine that came with it and use a couple of good heavy rubber bands around the lip of the base that holds the bag on really well. I bought this at my local Leslie's pool supply.
The best way would be to scoop as much of the larger debris as possible. This could take a great deal of time depending on the buildup of junk. Set the filter to run 24/7. Load pool w/ chlorine. Check next day for water quality, you may be able to see the bottom enough to vac pool. B/w filter. add more chlor if needed. The leaf gobbler and devices above don't work well with muck so don't bother. B/W as needed thru the day. Continue this process your pool will start to recover -- however with sand filters it will take longer as they do not filter fine enough.

Why is it beneficial for worms to rise to the surface while its raining?
I think because they need air. They can breathe underground because there are spaces between the earth, but cannot breathe underwater, just as humans cannot. When it rains, the ground becomes saturated, resembling an underwater condition.

When subtracting fractions does the bottom have to be the same?
Yes the bottom has to be the same when subtracting fractions. The bottom (or denominator) tells you what you're working with. You cannot subtract thirds from halves just as you cannot subtract oranges from tissues.
Are bottom dwellers fish?
The bottom dwellers on the ocean floors eat plankton and other smaller animals. The bottom of the ocean is a sustainable condition for plankton because they cannot move against a current and this leads them to be within reach of fish that feed on them.
