I feel like my rock has some potential to give me a nice looking scape, what do you guys think? I have some other pieces I could incorporate as well don't want it to be too crowded though.

I'll start off by saying, I don't like most scapes. Unfortunately it can be difficult to get something that doesn't look like a pile of rocks. Yours, however, looks awesome!

Looks great! The only thing I would change personally is maybe remove a rock from the left column so its not so close to the height of the right column. It will allow nice areas for corals that require different light and I'm also not a fan of symmetry.

That's actually one solid rock however I found one that helps off set it a bit what do ya think?

Wow one solid rock. Impressive.
I however don't care for aquascapes unless it is a fish only tank. Coral will take over all the rock and will be the "creator" of your aquascape. That's where the real art comes into play.

Wow! One piece? I'd leave the top added piece off then. It limits what corals you can add and let grow out up there but it all depends on how you want your corals to grow out.

I like it, I didn't get to aquascape my pile of rocks. 180lbs of pukani dry. Wife stopped me before I could get started. I got to bust one before she screamed and told me I was crazy. In her opinion the bigger the pile the more corals we could put on it. So I followed the golden rule " she who has the gold, makes the rules"!
