I have a 36 gallon bow front (in the picture) and I recently bought a 55 gallon. I want to move the current inhabitants over but I am at a loss as to a goal/vision of the tank. I have no idea what aquascape, corals fish etc. I want. I currently have a 6 line wrasse, lawnmower blenny, Picasso clown, ocellaris clown and a tiny hippo tang. I really like overhangs, arches and spire/tower type structures. I tend to favor lps so I’m thinking a more lps dominated tank but as I said before I’m at a loss here and in need of help to figure out what I really want.

I would take the same approach as your current tank. Just make things low on one end higher somewhere else, with another arch.

Being as in you have the current tank setup. Just take your time finding a scape you like. I'm currently downgrading from an 80 gallon to a 25 gallon. I also hate/have very little inspiration towards a scape. I'm just watching endless videos for ideas

Add some little rocks between those that you glued together to make it look a bit more like a natural formation, I like the overhangs

This piece is made of about 4 big rocks with smaller ones to fill out the gaps
