Default Three Updates

Ok so Im going to try to get some pictures in the next little while, since Ive made some solid progress with my tank and Id love to show you guys.

Ive still got some algae growth but it seems like its slowly going away, but we'll see. Ive bought a sea hare to help with it in the meantime.

Ok so on to the updates!

1.) Lately Ive been hearing a clicking noise coming from the tank. I know, I know, thats a tell-tale sound a mantis shrimp makes. So Im wondering, wondering a couple things about it. First off, what kind of "click" does it make? To me it sounds like smacking two marbles together. Second, I dont understand why I havent heard it the first month I have had my tank running with the live rock in it that I bought? Is it possible it was dormant-ish (assuming it is a mantis) for a whole month? I havent added anything since my initial setup where it could have hitch hiked.

2.) We bought a golden dwarf morray eel this weekend. He is fricken awesome. I assume hes close to full grown because Id say he's right near 1 foot long and he is actually the coolest thing ever. Havent seen him eat just yet but he is definitely interested in eating as he pokes out when food is around.

3.) We also added a tang but Im not really sure what kind. Colby at Elite said it was a "Tamimi Tang" but I cant find any information on it. Anyone know what it might be that sounds similar to that? Its greyish with orange dorsal and anal fin. Its tail fin is white with a blueish tinge.
