Very nice, and more importantly for me very natural

The way the rocks sort of flow away I love and it’s exactly what I tried to do in my tank to get the natural look

And welcome to R2R as well!
 
That looks nice sincerely. I can see easy siphon access in your design. I see a small cramp lower right; can a magnet slide past that rock?
yea actually I was very strict on having space to clean all around the glass. I hate all types of algae.
 
I think it looks good! You will just need to trim the Xenia and GSp before they take over
actually want it to take over that rock on the side and I'll be separating that rock from the scape so it doesnt take over the whole rock scape

Thank you ✊
 
great looking tank - the only feedback that I immediately thought off, that I think you were also thinking about, is that everything is 1 connected structure. I typically want to see a couple of island to separate different kinds of corals. Benefits include:
1) easier to limit/prevent fast growing corals from taking over the whole rock - like you mentioned with the GSP
2) easier to combat algae/pest issues later on - a separate rock/island will be much easier to take out/treat (ie, if you need to dip them in anything) than a single connected structure
3) more variety in shapes of coral growth - ie, some encrusting corals will grow "flat" on a large structure, but will grow "up" into a dome if on an island with limited space to "spread out".
