Just extending a hello!

New here, and to the hobby. I've had FW tanks for years, but am new to SW. I just purchased a JBJ 29 Gallon Nano. So far, I really like it. They guy I got it from had 2 clowns (breeding pair, he says), a blue tang (of course!), and a pseudochromis (royal dottyback). There are 3 or 4 small red/yellow hermits, 2 turbo snails, a decorator spider crab, and a brittle star. There are a few corals in there too....of which I have no idea what kind they are. (There is a toadstool & a tree coral...I figured those out, lol.) There is coraline along the back wall, and a bit on the side wall. It's really hard to get off the side w/a scraper (acrylic tank) - any tips? I'll leave it on the back, as I hear it's beneficial.
The sand bed looks "dirty"....any tips? Would an urchin, star, or other snails help?
I just set it up yesterday, and the LR looks dirty from everything re-settling. I cleaned the sponge in the back, and resettled everything. How do I tidy up the rock?
Thanks for your help...I'm really excited about our new tank!

Here's my tank, so far! Wasn't sure how to set up the LR as it was (which side was up? What was living on it? Eeek!) disassembled before I got there to pick it up. I hope I didn't kill anything off!
