Use a remote sump temporarily whilst you install new baffles.

I'm not sure I have all the info on your sump.
I am assuming you a have glass 33 gallon with glass baffles.
Did the baffles break? or just came loose?
Either way, you must get the sump dry, and clean where you want to re-install the baffles. Then re-silicone them into place.
Or, if the old are broken, then measure and go to a glass shop and have them cut new ones.

To help us better understand help us by taking a picture of both your display tank and sump and post them here and then we can better direct you on how to proceed forward.
