your selection of chaeto macro algae was really wise--that's all you need.
You have copopods in your tank already--the idea of the refugium is to give them a save haven from predators so they will multiply
I would not put frags in a refugium--the light is usually not strong enough and they can get covered with different kinds of algae.
I would suggest some reef rubble in the bottom of the refugium then chaeto--that's all you need.
Have a look at this thread--I suggested some ways to encourage chaeto growth
