Sice the last post, the Montipora have died for unknown reasons.  Think it might be my lighting.  I have also recently added a Foxface tang to the tank to get rid of the green hair algea.  Within about 1 week after adding the tang, all my green hair algea has dissappeared.  He has done the best job of all options I have tried previously, including yellow tang, lots of snails and crabs, and manual scrubbing of the rocks.  I never tried a sea hare, but I have heard that sea hares are hard to keep because once they dispose of the algea, they die quickly.  The foxface I have is supposed to be an algea only eater, however I have seen him eating mysis shrimp and other food I feed my other fish with, so I do not think that he will starve, which is good, because he will keep tabs on the algea. 
 
I am still trying to find someone to take one of the pieces of colt coral from my tank, since it is outgrowing my tank.  If I dont find someone soon, I'll just have to trim them back a bit and throw out the extra.
