Any thoughts for the left side aquascape?

I just finished the large portion of this aquascape. Do you think I should do more on the left side of the tank or keep it how it is? This will be a LPS dominate tank and will have a deep sand bed. Also have to keep some room for a goni garden on the sand bed.

It looks pretty good. You can always add height later if you choose.

I really like it. LPS grow fast, take up space, and push out some big sweepers. I’ve had to move rock to my sump over the years because of euphyllia and caulestrea growth.

i actually really like how this looks. it creates dimension inside the tank.

just try to imagine it, with coral ON the rocks. lps corals will be different heights and widths. they'll need space to expand and grow, as well. so, you dont want to clutter the rock work before your coral gets on there, or else, once the corals start growing at different rates, youll loose the look of there being different heights. you also dont want to build up the left side and create shadows or dark areas where the light cannot and will not reach.

if you're looking for more a more dynamic look, you can actually build up the sandbed, towards the back of the tank and create a SLIGHT slope towards the front of the tank. itll give the interior the illusion of being tilted towards you, when you're viewing from the front, and will make the tank appear larger and deeper (from front to back).

looks good so far, once you add sand you might want to add more height on the left side
