I personally think it need WAY more rock! I am a big fan of the 90's rock wall in a tank(besides a reef pretty much is a rock wall), only because thats what I grew up on.

Thanks...never was a fan of rock walls, plus it limits flow which can turn into a nitrate factory.

I agree with the different heights and its something to consider. Using my par meter, i found A way to give my magnifica more par and flow! Does that change any opinions? Or does it keep the everything the same?

Different corals like different lighting intensities. So varying rock height helps you accommodate.
Great point. I use my par meter for coral placement. So areas receive mar par than other but the Orpheks do a good job of putting down the par!
