Should be fairly simply. Drain sump, cut out the pain of glass that's your refugium. Have concepts make you a new pain of glass or cut one yourself out of acrylic. Figure out how high (or low) it should be by doing some math to subtract 3 or 4 gallons from the refugium. Volume is LxWxH right? 'H' being the height of the refugium baffle taking into account the extra dead space above the refugium to allow for that extra 3g/4g of back siphon.
