Getting that pipe to lay flat is a matter of heat. As suggested a warm summer day will help.

As far as how far off the bottom, well, this depends on a few things here..... How sandy is the bottom, and how turned up does it get... I have found that about 6" to 12" works just fine... I have a wooden X and the foot valve goes through the middle and it works fantastic... accept the wood has finally started to rot.. so along with reviving my lake water system this year, I will be creating a new X once the water is warm enough to go play in...
