What you think of this aquascaping? Keep it, move something around?

it nice, i may suggest something, make sure you have enought room between your rock and glass for your magfloat or watever you use to clean glass (front and side pannel). some rocks seems pretty close to the glass preventing a good an easy cleaning.
i would also be tempted to push your squape deeper in your tank, it seems in the middle of the tank, if it's intented, ok. but ifeel you may want more room in front for corals,

just my 2cents,

nice work so far

I like it.. I find it so hard to judge a scape when its dry. Once you have corals and different colors my guess is you will readjust. Multiple times !

I may be moving the switched outlet strip over a bit away from the water source. I used a sharkbite 1/4 valve from HD. Highly recommend using that if you are attaching RODI to a constant water source

My only thought might be to add a bit more irregularity in height, maybe on the larger, right-hand bommie ... but you can do that easily enough with SPS, later! Kind of like a significant other - if you think you'll enjoy waking up to that view every day for the next umpteen years, then by golly, keep that one!

Nice - I like it. Keep in mind though, that I won't be looking at it every day - you will! Also keep in mind that if you go _too_ tall with the rocks, you'll run out of room to grow corals!

Bruce, you are messing with my head!! Lol. The right side is a tad tall but still plenty or room for corals. The left side is substantially lower just in case.

Looks good! I like arches in tanks so yours looks good. I'm sure once you add corals you'll mix it up a bit. I've read scaped a bunch since I started my tank. Here's my current scape now. Maybe it'll give you some inspiration lol
