Without No3 to feed on your chaeto will prolly die,meaning you dont need chaeto.

Well many of us keep the chaeto to do what the fuge is meant for, growing pods.
While your chaeto may not grow due to lack of nutrients you'd have to be pretty darn sterile for it to just die off.
What light are you using?
And yes, many keep LR in sump/fuge.
