So now it's up and running for a week starting to show great signs of growth should I take out my chaeto. Also I have a 21/2 inch sand bed in my refugium should I keep the sand or get rid of it?

That's 2 1/2 inches.

Are your nutrients high? If so may want to leave the chaeto until the scrubber matures a little more.

What about the sand bed. I thought so .That screen has a few weeks to go before it starts to materially affect nutrients.
Nice . How big is your tank. That's a big screen.Then you can remove the chaeto .... or not remove it, up to you.
Sand bed is really not related. If you have issues with it then remove it; if not, keep it. 2 1/2” probably isn’t doing much.
Reef breeds refugium light on the front and a 25-watt bulb full spectrum in the back. Do you think my screen is to big 10× 12 ?I'd let it ride & see who wins out for nutrient export.
What lights are you running

Big .... 450. You can check out my build thread on the monster tank page.
[/QUOT I want to see your tank where to find it.
Now that's a tank.Go to the monster tank 400+ forum here on R2R .... mines the Simon’s 450 thread.

12 sq in, double-sided, per cube/day fed (not 2)I think it like 12sq in (doubled sided) per 2 cubes
If lit with the appropriate/matching amount of light, then that would be a 10 cube/day screen. However, if your light is less, the capacity of the screen is limited by that factor. It's not just one thing that defines capacity, it's a combination of things (including flow, screen roughness, even distribution of light, etc)Do you think my screen is to big 10× 12 ?
