So, I took some advice from folks over at the other thread that I started and made some changes. I like it quite a bit, but thought I'd throw it out there for some opinions :).

Now please ignore all the frags and where all of them are for the most part, some of them are not in their final resting place. I came down with a severe cough and haven't had my hands in the tank to finish placing everything. A majority of the stuff on the sand bed is for sale and is going for the frag swap in April in the DFW area.

Also, not the cleanliest at the moment, cause my skimmer is adjusting to the new rock, so it's just running but not pulling junk out as it is going nuts!

Here's a side view from the right side.. as best as I could get:

Its hard to say that I love it from the pictures, but it seems good... nice and open layout with room for growth. As you long as it's pleasing to you, who's to say otherwise? :thumbsup:

I like that High Arch, that is pretty unique IMO, most of us have smaller caves.
If you like it, keep it.
BTW, a year from now, you probably will change it anyway. Its hard to be satisfied with one's own Aquascape. Reefkeeper's Syndrome I'm naming it! LOL

Looks really good. I like the offset island. Looks like your sand bed will be nice and open once you get the frags mounted.

Yeah, the frags are bit distracting, but if you look beyond them, it is a pretty nice scape. When they encrust over and the ones scattered all over the sand sell off, it will be sweet. Believe me, I can sympathize with not enough room for extra stuff.

looks okay to me, but that's not what matters. if you like it you like it. if you don't, change it up. as long as there's room for fish to move and spots for coral to be (looks like you could use some more rock actually ;) ) then that's the important stuff.

The rockwork on it's own is looks very nice. Once your corals start to grow your DT will look more vibrant and colorful.

I think it looks great! I like the island look. Your fish will like the arch too. To me this looks pretty natural, just like a reef should.
