Welcome to CR! Having an extra pump to run Chaeto seems excessive. Maybe try putting it in a bag or in display. Other macro algae does a great job with nutrient reduction. Id be happy to send ya a few snips.
You could buy a hang on quarantine or specimin container. It will keep your pods protected from fish. Allowing them to reproduce easier. I've seen many cool hob refugiums as well.
Stand built... waiting for it to come inside and start filling it with water, sand and rocks before starting a build thread. That may be tonight. Still hedging on which lighting to purchase. Can decide between PAR38 bulbs that are not dimmable, but look cool, or the chinese LED lights which is dimmable, brighter, and cheaper, but I'm not sure how to hang and avoid light overspill.
