Looks good! I'd still open this up a bit in the middle if it were me.

I may move the left forward and the turn the right counterclockwise.

My current scape is minimal. It's got coral on it now though. I'll be updating my thread soon.

I like the minimal, I just had it for 4 years and wanted something a little different to look at. Not to mention, kind of a "chapter 2" of my tank. A new start, if you will.

Here's a couple examples of how minimal can look great if done right. Sometimes less is more!

Ok, changed a few things this morning. I decided to scrap the "shelf house" looking thing in front and use those to slope the right side down. Then, I broke the shelf into smaller pieces and filled holes. I rearranged some pieces on the right side of the left formation and filled holes. I didn't have time to separate the two islands today but I will try to get to that. I guess it's hard to tell in the pics but they are slightly angled to their respective sides.

I still think I'm missing a few pieces here and there.

Tank seems very shallow. You can't utilize the top section of the two islands for coral placement since it's so close to water surface. Overall I like it.

18" tall...I think my next tank will be 22-24" tall.

I think somewhere in that range is the perfect height for my taste. I used to have on 33 inches deep and was a bit too deep.

+1 Having a tank that's easy to work in is a major factor in the tanks I buy.

Get rid of this rock. It's killing ur scape.

22 is great height!

Most likely will be the height of my next tank.

Yeah, I picked that rock because of the size but totally neglected the fact that it doesn't look like any of the others. I need to find a few more rocks, one being to replace that one. Thanks

Marco rocks...check out their site.

That's what most of the rocks are aside from a few that don't match.

My first round at a "scape" 4 years ago was all Marco. Good looking stuff and fits well if you know what you're doing. I didn't.

Dude, once it fills-in, you won't care anymore. Don't sweat the small stuff. I personally think it looks awesome, but I SUCK at aquascaping. LOL!

You'll be removing rocks after corals start growing-in, any way.

I like it for a change of scenery. No rocks are against the glass so the tank can have a nice view from all sides. Your water seems a bit cloudy... or is it the clouds in my eyesss?

Your eyes weren't lying to you. I took the pic right after I was finished moving everything so the water was still cloudy.
