My pump is in the water on a stand keeping directly off the bottom.

The PVC pipe should sink as long as you have all the air out of it. I never take my waterline out. Its been in the lake for 11 years now without an issue.

If your pumping from shore I would assume any kind of weight on the end of your black PVC would work as long as all the air is out of the lines...and yes I would keep it 10"-12" off the bottom.
