Try moving the 3 structures around and rotating them until you find a better arrangement for them.
Any suggestions on that? The one on the right has to sit as is (can’t be rotated but can be moved. I think the one on the left can slightly turn.

Try putting the 2 structures really close to each other

It makes sense, it will work very well.

I’ve been making some progress On getting everything assembled and here is where I have ended up. My concerns is primarily the right side of the tank being too boring compared to the left. I’m thinking of doing an arch in the front with a tower with a platform at the top behind it. Here is where I’m at so far. I’d like to make the tower on the left a little taller. Do you think I’m missing anything else? The full picture is also a panoramic image so things are slightly distorted.

So I will be adding sand and water once I am completely set on my positioning. The rocks on top of each other have been drilled put fiber glass rods and glued. However there’s a big rock on the ground that’s not really connected to anything but touching one of the structures. Plus I have 2 islands. I also have an extra couple rocks, and rubble to play around with. I will be shooting for soft and lps coral. I also plan on having a couple of fish in here thinking of a sand sifting goby and 6 line wrasse? It’s a 40 gallon breeder. I appreciate any help as this is my first tank!

Can anything be done with this? I’m not really happy with it! Definitely need a bigger tank a 450 so I can space out the live rock more, it looked great when I was scaping it outside using a template but with the water and the lights it looks crowded and untidy. Any suggestions would be Greatly Appreciated.
