Get a hose and route your skimmer outflow to the downflow chamber, make it traverse all the buffers again before getting to the return pump.

i would run the overflow pipe into a bunch of liverock first then over a baffle or under then through some carbon (on and off) then the biggest and best thing woudl be a sponge that fits the sump almost perfectly so the water is forced through it.IMO
