You can't have the drain dumping right into the return pump section or your tank will be full of bubbles. With what very little space you have in a 10g tank the fuge may not be the best way to go.
I don't see any issues teeing off the drain ( have done it on several tanks, all of them have the return zone in the center with the fuge at one end and the skimmer at the other) as long as you are not closing the valves too much. Also make sure you have some type of screen over the drain.
