Looking at my current rockscape, I've been thinking that my surface area for corals is really lacking which would severely limit corals to the top and the bottom right slope. To rectify this I was thinking about adding a rock on this corner leaning onto the corner of the glass (yellow circle)? Is this a good idea? I just don't see what type of corals could be placed towards the left of the scape due to it having a vertical column towards the front (red circle).

I would add a rock to give it hight but don’t lean it on the glass or too close to the glass. You need to have enough space to pass a glass cleaner/scraper passed it
 
I have one huge rock in my Fluval and hate it. I wouldn’t add anymore. Keep that area open for frag racks and room for fish to swim.
I get what you mean, it just looks kind of boring/generic petco tank and wanted to make it more interesting.
 
I like this frag rack much better than the neon orange/green ones you see a lot with these EVO tanks. the rack looks like it'd blend in nicely.
Just took a plc of mine. I think works pretty good.

That's the general consensus I've gathered so far and think it's a great idea. I'll put it on the list of upgrades :grinning-face-with-sweat:
