Suggest that you glue the entire length where the water enters the overflow box with "teeth" so as to prevent any small fish from taking an adventure to explore what's in the other side of the overflow box.

You are correct the skimmer should be the first point of contact from the water leaving the tank. For optimum results skimmer needs to be in the first compartment , and the white wool in the second department, to catch any furher dirt. Skimmer outlet should be directed to the last chamber as the return pump.
