not necessary. there is nothing in there that can continue to get worse. whats in there will stay the time. dont even put light on it, if there is something in there then it will all die off in the dark.
water circulation and temp is all u need

Nope, there isn't any phos or nitrates in the salt your putting in there. I would just use the sand, LR, and lighting for a refugium.
