Here are pics of my 90g reef. What would you do to make it better. The brighter picture is with all the blues turned off but normally the tank is very blue. Some sps have started to grow, the devils hand needs to be purged some but this is a tank running for 3 years. Needs more. We may be remodeling the room a little bit that would just moving the tank to the other side of the room maybe.

Looking good! I don't know that it really needs any changes. I like the depth of the rockwork and all the habitat space for fish.

The only thing I'd be tempted to do if this were my tank was to "break the rules" by building up rockwork almost to surface level right in front of the overflow. IMO the coralline-covered overflow is just asking to be the backdrop for a dramatic vertical spire. (Assuming you could pull this off without negatively affecting light and flow to your other rockwork.)

Overall though, this is a really nice looking tank! Great work!
 
I would split the rockwork in 2 separate islands of different height, to make it look less like a single wall of rocks. I would personally scrape the coralline algae off the backwall and spread the green leathers across the rockwork. :)
 
Now If I can beat the Cyano and bubble algae and also the nitrate bottoming out.
