Macro Algae?
I'm going to be using Cpr AQUAFUGE HOB refugium 25x4x12. Can I mix different types of macro algae and how much can I put there.

Yes I believe you can mix different types of macros. Don't know about all species, but I only use chaeto in my sump. Chaeto looks like thin angelhair pasta all tangled in a big ball, and from my experience as the ball grows the inner strands don't die off when they no longer receive any light. If you add only chaeto, you could technically fill it up, but wouldn't leave room adequate water movement around and through it to grow and work as an efficient nutrient export.
