I have a couple of these grow lights, I want to set up a refugium in my sump with some cheato, should these lights be suitable to grow the cheato?

OK, ammonia and nitrates will drop to 0 in a day after dosing up to 2 ppm, I’ll be out of town for 4 day’s next week, will the bacteria drop without me dosing over that time? Should I drop in a shrimp or something while I’m gone?
Tunze makes some shorter skimmers. The Comline 9012 is a little over 16 inches tall. I'm not sure on cup clearance thoughOk, time for skimmer shopping, my issue is low clearance in my sump, 18”, would it be effective using 2 skimmers that are rated for a smaller aquarium? Also I assume you want your skimmer rated for total gallons, DT and sump? I can get a HOB if necessary
I personally would choose snails over hermit crabs for cleanup. Primarily Banded Trochus for glass and rock plus Tiger Conchs for the sand bed. Whenever I've tried to mix, the hermits always kill the snails no matter how many empty shells I give them.I've been looking at some of these clean up crew packages, 90 something hermit crabs seems like an awful lot of critters, is that much really needed?
I've always been a fan of cardinals as a first fish. They're slow, stick to themselves and are easy to catch if you end up deciding to go with a predator tank.Any thoughts on first fish additions? I’ve thought about a small school of chromis, we know we want a clown/anemone, and I like some of the wrasses

It’s hypnea pannosa,I’ve had it for about a week and a half so I’m not sure about the color long term, but it’s gotten much brighter and more blue since I put it it, when I got it it was more of a dull blue-green,probably from shippingHow long have you had the macro algae?
Will it maintain that coloration?
Is it Blue Ochtodes?
