Tank update! Empty Tank update!

So, my SW tank has been set up for a while now and has gone through a few trials and tribulations, but it has prospered. My corals are growing at a very nice rate, my fish are all happy and the cayano algae has been eradicated. My clowns have been displaying some interesting behavior lately. The male and female have been attempting to mate, I think. I have zero experience with SW fish mating, but they are doing the same type of shaking and swimming around each other in turn that FW fish do.

The coral growth is amazing. All of my corals have experienced growth and I am noticing more polyps and branches every day.

Here are a few pictures of some of the tank.

this is a tiny blue leg hermit, no idea where it came from..lol

Here is another cool one I forgot about. This little frag had 2 of these "flowers" on it when I bought it off a guy on CL for $5. The plug was sitting on a piece of LR in my tank, but during the cayano fight, I knocked it off the rock and lost track of it. well, recently I found where it settled. One of the bigger "flowers" has apparently died, but it has sprouted 4 smaller ones in its place. It seems real happy where it settled and is growing like mad. I have no idea what the name of this little guy is, but it is absolutely beautiful.

Here are a few pictures

If anyone knows what this little guy is, please let me know.

Very nice. Inspiring, actually. At a time when I need no more inspiration for new projects. I need inspiration to complete already started projects. But really very lovely.
