Thomas, if this helps, I have the objects setup like this to get the proper
caustics (and "collect off" increased render speed x4):

#include "frame_side_object.inc"
object {
   frame_side_ob
   photons {
      pass_through
      collect off
   }
}

#include "frame_top_001_object.inc"
object {
   frame_top_001_ob
   photons {
      pass_through
      collect off
   }
}

#include "frame_top_object.inc"
object {
   frame_top_ob
   photons {
      pass_through
      collect off
   }
}

#include "water_object.inc"
object {
   water_ob
   photons {
      target
      reflection on
      refraction on
   }
}

#include "pool_object.inc"
object {
   pool_ob
   photons { collect on }
}

#include "arc_object.inc"
object {
   arc_ob
   photons { collect on }
}

#include "walls_object.inc"
object {
   walls_ob
   photons { collect on }
}
