I have purchased a 180 gallon tank with a complete setup (used). I want to do a refuge sump but the sump tank has only 2 bays. how could I do a refuge with a protein skimmer? Any ideas is greatly appreciated!

How would you set one up doing that? Never heard of it but I would consider giving it a try

Anything made of reef-safe plastic that you could hang off the side that features slits or slots for water to pass through. You might be able to utilize bio media baskets as well.

I will look into that. I am getting ready to go to my local saltwater store here in a few. Would that be something I could find there or would I have to order it online?

Maybe - really depends. BRS might be a good place to do some preliminary searches.
