Try turning your filter off, and dumping a pack of red Kool Aid (don't stir) into the pool. The red coloring will indicate the leak.

Has anyone had any experience with some sort of above ground pool leak
detector? I figures if I could connect one probe to some sort of
sensitive restiance (ohm) meter and put it in the water, I could maybe
read the resistance between the probe and ground and then as I got closer
to the leak the restiance would go down. But the restiance is WAY high..
But seems to me something like that would work. Any ideas?
