protein skimmer plumbed into "closed loop"

[leebo_28]

ok...Tank( 90AG ,rr drilled for closed loop)...check
protein skimmer(beckett injector type)...check
40 long for sump(baffles 12" high)...check
Dolphin aquasea 3600sp(3600 ,40ft shutoff)...check
New stand built cause protein skimmer needs 35" not 28"....check
Well now you know what I am working with...I need to plumb this hopefully without buying another pump( i already have dish duty for a freakin year ...(love you dear)
is it possible , or am I setting myself up to flood the living room?

c-mon I am racking the noggin trying to figure this out...the protein skimmer will drain into the sump...as well as the drain from the overflow...I have 2 inch and a half bulkheads feeding the pump...from the tank , can I jus tee off from a bulkhead on sump to push water back to tank , i will still have good circulation...jus not a closed loop anymore , right ??
