Hi Polo, welcome!

Welcome! regarding the aquascape, maybe you could stack some rocks to make some arches. Would definitely enhance the scape! Happy reefing

Here my 50lagoon(dimensions similar just scaled up)

and here is the 25 lagoon

for some reference. But, never EVER listen to someone else on rockwork. This is where you get to be most in tune with your tank. Find what YOU like and what you think looks good, what you enjoy looking at. This is YOUR tank, not theirs. That being said listen to adhering(gluing/stability tips and tricks)

Welcome to Reef2Reef!!

I think the aqauscape could use a bit of height on one side to make it look a bit off set.

But you want to love your aqauscape so if you are happy with it that's awesome!

In regards to the light you mentioned. I had looked it up and only found examples of it being used with planted tanks. If it is a freshwater plant light it will fuel a lot of algea and may not have the right spectrum for corals if you plan on keeping them.
