    Very nice nano!  The Frilly and Ricordia are both mushrooms.  

    Your tank in time will be too small for the Percula.  The general rule is 1" of fish per 5 gallons so a 5" adult clown would need a 25 gallon tank.  Great excuse to get a bigger tank, eh?

    Was a an LPS Brain Coral of some sort. Without the flesh and coloration, difficult to be sure.

    Great looking nano...it looks like your new tank is going to be a nice one!!

    Did you put a hole in the plug at the top of the stand pipe, and if so how big?
