Your CC (chocolate chip?) starfish will take care of any featherdusters once it finds them -- it does a good job mowing down feather dusters, zoos, and some other types of corals as well. Can't see the set up as work blocks the pictures so can't comment on that :)
Oh... unless your keeping LPS or SPS corals calcium really doesn't need to enter in here -- unless you like testing it for fun :)

my only suggestion is not t run the water so high in your fuge. I dont know if you have any siphoning when your power goes out, but if you do then you will end up with water ALL OVER and its not fun.
