Patience.
Let it get established and corals will fill it up pretty quickly.

Looks good now.

If you decided to add more rock, less space for fish and coral, I just like the minimalist look.
If you do, make sure it's properly cured is all.
 
Its all a matter of personal preference. Some like more rock some like minimal. Let it cycle and slowly add coral and fish. Don't rush it and you will be glad you didn't.

It is cycled
 
So what is your filtration for this tank, live rock plays a huge part of filtration and I do understand the minimalist approach, but the filtration needs to be made up somewhere. Most people with minimal rock, tend to have a sump with additional rock, or other forms of biological filtration.
 
I just have a hang on the back filter it's for a 40 to 60gal tank so I figured it was pretty efficient filtration for the tank
 
Another angle

I'd leave it as is and just get corals to fill up the empty space.

When do u think is the best time to add the tanks only been going lil over month with the live rock and sand
 
I added my first Hammer coral after five months, could be long time, just me. I also checked Phosphate level.
 
With the hang-on filter, I'd suggest a couple more pieces of live rock - not too much because what you have looks good. I know you always get conflicting advice in this hobby :) the amount of sand you have is perfect imo.

Once your tank is fully cycled, generally 10 - 12 weeks. I know that's a long time but why rush it and subject yourself to disappointment if things die off. I myself waited the full 12 weeks and have not been disappointed. The only thing I am disappointed in is that I did not drill for a sump.
