Thoughts on this aquascape

IMO it’s too symmetrical and looks man made. I like the 2 end pieces, I like the height on them and I like the grooves and twists, but I don’t like the 2 arches and the little cave house in the middle. I would build 2 more of the end pieces and then put all 4 together, connected by little bridges. It’s just my 2 cents good luck

If you want coral you’re going to want a lot more rock to mount it to.

That was truely a harsh assessment, but I think you nailed it from the natural reef look perspective.

OP< If you like it, It is perfect.

Maybe.

What are you going to keep & grow in this tank? The current scape could be improved by adding more places for fish to hide out and feel safe in, presuming you are going to have fish?

Don't get discouraged by us tough critics, we mean well, or we're just mean" I don't know.

I have to agree with @Mr. Mojo Rising... the two arches remind me of the entrance pool and exit to the Holland Tunnel.

The people of New York paid 2.6 billion to design and build that structure. Believe me they had a design review process that was first rate!

switching one of the tall pieces with one of the arches would alleviate some of the symetrical aspect. But it is supposed to be what you think looks good.

It looks good, here’s what I would change if it were me:
Turn one of the arches into a cave and build the other arch up more with additional rocks to help break up the symmetry
