Welcome to Reef2Reef!

I like your rock scape, though I think you'd benefit from a bit more rock, which gives fish places to hide, and corals places to grow. But for a minimalist aquascape I think yours looks very good. I like your stand too, nice work!

#reefsquad can we please help to welcome a new member and their new build

Good luck with your build!

IMO more rock..... I would pile up more rocks on the left to create those tight little nooks and cracks that fish love.

Get some shelves and caves there. Definitely more rock would be great!

The left side could use more. Also you can add some rock to your sump. Good luck with your journey.

Welcome, glad you are here, I agree with above!

I vote in favor of more rocks too!

As mentioned, more rock.
However, unless you really like a minimalist look then keep the way it is. The above comments add really good points for having more rock though.

I am a minimalist scape fan. I do agree you could add some more rock to the smaller structure.
If your concern is the bacterial filter than you can add mediums to the sump to increase surface area to facilitate the growth of nutrifying bacteria. Blocks seem be the most poplar or just add rubble.

As someone who started from minimalist to full on rockscape I say go full on if you can. It’s really entertaining to see fish swim through the scape and you’ll be surprised to find what grows in the little caves. Good luck!

Scapes are personell so if you like yours run with it. I have had the great rock wall many times and prefer a minimalistic approach to scapes but thats me.
Oh and...

You could add some rock on the left side. You could add a zoa garden or a hammer garden.

Depends on your goal! You can add more, if you like (more caves and more room for fish to hide in). However, if you are going for a more minimalistic approach, then you are fine.
