Can you delay start after return pump outlet turns on instead of or along with the power outage?

I know many people time their feeding > return pump /skimmer off > return on > delay skimmer on.


I have mine set up with a level sensor in the sump so the skimmer shuts off if the sump water level rises above a certain point. This shouldn't be too hard to do either.
