125g, 100# dry rock, planning on adding 25# KPAquatics live rock as accent pieces. I think I need more rock, what do you think?

Not more , taller , imo.

Use some to go up. Leave gaps as islands.

The gaps will likely be filled later with impulse buys of small Colonies and large lps specimens and clams.
I hope.

I think a little higher in the right would be better as well as on the left end. I would keep one end lower than the other though, not sure why but that seems more visually appealing.
That's exactly what I was thinking. Something like this.

He means to just leave some open space between the rocks so it doesn’t all look like one large rock structure.
I like the wall look, but I also like having some open space as well as sand. I'm trying to start with a rock wall on the right for maybe 1/4 of the tank, tapering down to nothing, with a smaller, more open structure on the left.
