I'm going on vacation for a weekend and was thinking about doing a blackout for algae while I'm gone. My question is whether any of my critters will be harmed by the blackout. I feel the answer is no, but I'm not 100% sure. Thanks in advance, SCI

Fish:
2 engineer gobies (trying hard to get these out without tearing up the tank, any ideas other than the failed bottle method?)
1 maroon clown
2 bumble-bee gobies
1 guppy
1 one-spot foxface
3 banggai cardinals
1 yellow spot watchman gob

inverts (probably forgetting some but you get the jist):
2 feather dusters
1 flame scallop
1 sea hare
1 tiger pistol shrimp
1 long spine urchin
1 long tentacle anemone
3 red Cortez hermits
3 blue legged hermits
1 turbo snail
4 asterea snails
1 tiger sand conch

Corals:
1 leather toadstool
zoas
assorted mushrooms
 
With all those lives in your hands, is a blackout really necessary? ;)
 
Lol, I think he meant with all my algae eaters. I just got back, a day early and so much happened to my tank. A chemical warfare broke out, so I'm going to petco tomorrow since I'm out of carbon.
My engineer goby pair broke up
Lastly, my female maroon clown stopped trying to kill my male
