correct?

Reverse the rock and skimmer then add a divider between the rock and return pump and you should be good to go.
 
Yep. The only place that your water level will change (due to evaporation) is in the section that you have the return pump. Some skimmers won't work if the water level is continuously changing, so you will want the skimmer in a separate section than the return pump.
 
do it like this
