What are your thoughts? I'm not sure if I like it.

That's kinda fun, but maybe if prefer something like two good towers with tons of empty space? Maybe 3? It seems... Obviously unnatural, which can be cool, but my preference is something more nature-ish

that will be ***** cool if you do zoanthids. maybe some Acroppora on those rocks or even chalices. I dig it regardless of the plans

I dig it alot! I enjoy the openness of the rock work! Very intrigued, by the pillar effect! I do have a little critiquing, I don’t like my aquascape passing past the half way point on my tank, that is just a preference of mine. I like to give ample swim room above, and coral growth. But overall I love it 10/10 sir!

I like it, if it was me I would lower both side structures so it lowers / drops a bit towards the side glass.
It will look great with corals on and fish will love it. :)

I love it as a fish only tank.......as a full reef all of the vertical structures will make it more difficult for coral placement.....not impossible, just more difficult :)

I'd your making a reef I'd add some more shells on the pillars for frag/coral placement. Mayne lower some points at the top to give room for coral.to grow and take up the height difference.. Other than that very nice.

A little more variance in height or a break in the structure somewhere might look nice. I'd try removing the right middle arch which will make the large right arch really stand out.

Reminds me of those karst mountains in China, I would make one side, or the middle, lower in order to reduce some of the symmetry of maximum height.
