You may have to add a quart of muriatic acid in an average size (15,000 gallons) in-ground pool if the pH level is higher than 7.8. Do not forget to check the pH level after allowing the water to circulate for an hour. For smaller above ground pools, using a cup of acid is usually a good starting point.

Can I put one end (like a ramp) into an inflatable kiddie pool or would it shoot me over the pool if I was going fast?

It sounds like it would be dangerous. You would likely be going too fast and would overshoot the kiddie pool. It is best not to do that.

I didn't rinse the gravel and now the water is cloudy. Can I just keep removing the water daily, or do I have to take all the gravel out?

It's up to you, but I think it would be easier to just empty the tank, rinse the gravel, and re-fill it rather than change the water daily.
