Default loose chain

Howdy...If anyone wants to comment, thanks.
My chain is way loose. I removed 2 links , put 1 back in. Still unable to join chain back together. I thought maybe chain would've stretched and allow 1 link to be removed. Nope. Still the chain flops around. The tensioner is maxed out. I was thinking of running the chain under the tensioner( would have to move whole tensioner closer to pedals) rather than on top. Would that be a bad idea?

If Removing Two Links Makes It Two Short And One Link Is Still Too Loose Try A Half Link / Offset Link Rural King Sells Them
