That depnds on what you mean by "too high". Your chlorine shouldn't be higher than a regular shock, about 10-12ppm, unless you have a really bad green algae bloom that required chlorine up to 25ppm.

Even at 15-20ppm for chlorine your pool pump should be fine.

Can air get into pool filter causing it to lose prime if water level in pool is too high?

Yes, air can get into the pool pump causing it to lose prime if you have a leak or crack in the plumbing leading from the pool to the pump. The pool level being too high plays no role, however you should make sure that the pool level is not too high for other reasons, mainly the level is too high, water will leak under your cement causing it to settle. Keep the water level in the middle of the skimmer opening.


If you have a saltwater system that produces its own chlorine do you still need to have a chlorine tablet in the skimmer at all times like a standard system?

No you do not.The only chlorine you will use in a salt system is a shock.But even then you should use only a NON-Chlorine shock.And by the way Chlorine in your skimmer is a very bad Idea, The high concentration of chlorine going straight to your equipment (pump,heater,filter)will shorten it's life considerably.
