Ok so I broke down my 6' 125 gallon and started all new with live rock from TBS. Here is where I am at on aquascaping. If anyone has input I am all ears. Note that since all my old livestock is in a stock tank in the front hall I only have 1/2 of my lights centered on this tank. FTS followed by the left side and then the right. By the way the plan is for a mixed reef mainly SPS and LPS.

Thanks Everyone.

I think it looks nice as well, but if you want some ideas look up modern marine aquascaping and see what you like if your unsure, and modify as necessary.

But it looks good.

And welcome to R2R!
 
Thank you both for the replies. I read the tips and tricks threads, but will go look up modern marine aquascaping and see what I find there.
 
I like the shape and distribution and variation. Very nice overall. The only thing I might try to do is get the left side to fit a little more "naturally" so it seems less precarious placed, if possible. If not it looks great.
 
Thanks for the reply, my wife agrees with you. I have tried to rearrange the left side so it doesn't look so contrived. I and the wife think it looks better, will try and get a new picture up shortly.
 
I would take the rock in the middle and place it just left of the pillar, in that crevice if that makes sense. I would then build up the right island a bit. Just my opinion of course :)
 
Thanks to all who replied. note most of my livestock is on the sand bed acclimating to the lighting since it was in the stock tank with 1/2 the normal light for almost a month during the reboot.

Here is what I ended up with.
