Hello I watched a few YouTube videos on how to place my rocks and they just don't seem to look right and I'm looking for advice on what I'm doing wrong I want one part for coral that may try to take over that rock section but I just can't lay all this out right to get a good eye appeal where am I going wrong and can someone show me a long tank as mine is 72" long and 18" wide I don't know what to do

Agree remove 1/2 half of the sand. The scape looks good. I would incorporate more hiding spots for fish.

Your tank is larger but you can get the idea. Top three are setup pictures, last is after grow in some. Vary the height and stage front to back. In your tank it will look great
