Help me Modify an Oceanic Sump

I purchased a sump that came with the 57g i'm slowly building. I just now got around to start playing with the tank and would like to add a place for a refugium. Any ideas on how i should modify this? I have already cut a piece of glass for the baffle that seperates the drain and skimmer area from the fuge ( 9" tall), and as you can see in the below picture, their are 2 plastic baffles already there but mighty low (first baffle is 5"). As it stands right now, if i were to leave it as it, i would only have a 1.9g refugium, which i feel is way to small to do anything. Any ideas would be grand

You don't want the baffles too tall otherwise it will overflow if the power goes out. I would also do a 3 baffle bubble trap before the return pump.

i 100% agree. thats why my tallest baffle will be 9 inches. The tape is not proportionate, just for compartment spacing
