I did something similar and wound up adding more on top of as the tank progressed. Most of that had to do with coral placements, but also places for tank mates to hide. I love the arches, but I also like to incorporate a small cave if possible

In the end, it’s whatever you like. You’re the one that’s going to sit and enjoy it! 😊
 
My only concern is that your rock is a little too close to the glass. I would try to move it off the glass. Having rock that close can make it really difficult to clean that area of your tank (I have first-hand experience in doing this)

Looks great! If you have some extra rock, a little island right in the front would look nice! It would be good for those faster-growing corals, too.
