If you are just keeping marco algae instead of sea grass, you don't need to add miracle mud ( too expensive and not worthwhile ) just sand bottom and a few small pcs. of live rock will be fine. And never add any fishes that consume marco algae like tang, angel, rabbit etc otherwise you tank will result in a mess even the algae has established. I've collected and kept nearly 40 types of marco algae in 3 years and encountered a heavy loss once I introduced a couple of angelfish.
