because the mass of your body displaces some of the water. it has to go somewhere so the moved water forces the level to rise.

Can you replace a shallow well pump with an above ground pool pump and will it have enough suction lift to lift the water 20ft?

Above ground pool pumps are made to sit at or below the water level, not to pull water up. If placed above the water level, or away from the pool-side they will not circulate the water properly and may not even prime. For your well, a better option is to go for an in-ground pool pump - or better still, purchase a pump made for your particular application.

When you open your pool and you have lost about 2ft of water does this mean there might be a hole?

Maybe - maybe not. Here's an easy way to find out: Fill your pool to the normal level. Mark the water level on the side of the pool with a non-permanent marker. Fill a 5-gal bucket with water. Mark the water level also with the marker. Place the bucket next to the pool. Compare the water levels for a couple of weeks. If you have a leak in the pool, the water level in the pool will go down much faster than the water level in the bucket. If they go down at about the same rate, then no leak. ... I would modify the answer here by putting the bucket on the top step of the pool. If no step find a way to get the bucket partially submerged in the pool water. Reasoning here is that both bucket and pool water attain the same temps. k

How do salt levels in salt pool go up?

If you are adding salt to a salt water pool with a salt water chlorination system and the TDS level does not go up then the problem probably lies with the chlorination system not working (the electrolysis unit or power supply). Adding salt directly to the pool will increase the TDS (Total Dissolved Salts) concentration of the water.

A boat with an anchor on board floats in a swimming pool that is somewhat wider than the boat does the water level in the pool move upward?

When the boat is first lowered gently onto the surface of the water, the surface level rises slightly, regardless of the boat's size, shape, or weight, or what it has on board. The boat floats because it has displaced an amount of water that weighs exactly as much as the boat does. That means it has pushed some water out of some volume that the boat now occupies. The water it pushed aside has to go somewhere, and the surface level in the pool must rise.
