Actually putting the output in front of the skimmer is more for re-oxynation of the water. The bacteria uses oxygen and can deplete it, the skimmer re-oxynates. It does remove some bacteria by-product, but this by-product also feeds the coral and isn't bad for the tank. But no oxygen is BAD.
Just wanted to add more to the topic, hope it helps.
