Comments and advice on new aquascape

[GibsonGuitars]

Hello, this is my first real build. I have 2 Fluval 13.5’s (1 fish, 1 coral) that I used to dip my toes in the hobby and I am hooked. I got 40 pounds of the “seeded” dry rock after the mess I had with a skip cycle sump rock. Epoxied these and tension was separating the corner stone, so there is some temporary zip ties to keep it in place while it sets. Thinking I maybe should push the large piece back closer the the filter panel? That would create a larger front area for the fish to swim and be viewed. Should I add more small rocks? Maybe break up the remaining large pieces and add some rubble? Any advice would be appreciated.

By the way, the main arch is 10 individual rocks that were drilled, pinned with 4” pieces of acrylic coat hanger plastic (lol) and epoxied... then there is 3 small “island” rocks for Zoas (so they don’t spread beyond the their island.

I think it looks really good as is......if you weren't doing Zoas I would recommend knocking off the point on the center rock to give you room to mount coral but Zoas will cover that rock without any issues. I would also consider moving it to the left or right so it isn't dead center but again, Zoas will need some room. Good job!
