You don't have to set a skimmer right on the sump floor. Just get a plastic basket, ala milk crate or those green baskets mandarin oranges have been sold in,...cut accordingly,...and set the skimmer on that. This allows for more water in the sump. Just make sure you leave enough room for backflow, in the event of a power failure.

HTH,
