Skimmer Juice

wanting to hook my diablo 200ext skimmer under my tank as its a cube , the skimmer fits fine underneath . The problem I ran into was the drain on the skimmer is to low to go into the sump and I know you cant just plumb the drain up and over . So was going to use a taller pipe so it goes ove the edge of my sump and was going to cut down the pipe with the cap so it fits . Trying to avoid building a small stand to put the skimmer on as the cube tank is viewed from 4 sides with center overflow
first pic is how it shows to set it with the shorter pipe
second pic is how I was going to set it up anybody think this would work ?
cant really find to much info on the skimmer anywhere
