Hello All -
Looking for a little feedback, suggestions, and advice on my aquascaping. The tank was gifted to me by a friend who needed to get rid of it quickly. When I got it, it had MUCH more rock that what is in it now. I saved a 5 gallon bucket worth for a rainy day then donated the rest to the LFS.
Tank currently houses:
Several nems (Sebae, condy, rock flower, rainbow BTA and a green BTA)
Pair of Clowns
Dwarf Coral Beauty
Royal Gramma
Lawnmower Blenny
Mandarin Dragonet
Pistol Shrimp
Clean up Crew
Mushrooms (primarily on 2 islands)
Euphylia
Candy Cane colony
Chalices
Kenya Tree
Various Zoas
Lots of small frags

I'd like to hear your ideas on what can improve. I added 2 pics, one in blue light, one in more of a white.

Wow that is after you removed rock? The thing that jumps out at me is it doesn’t have any cave/tunnels from front to the back. I would suggest creating three of them. Your fish and shrimp will love it.
 
Unbelievable right? At least 2 buckets more of rock were in there. I only kept these piece because some had coral or sponges on them. There actually are a couple of caves, just hard to see in the picture, plus the large flat rock against the back wall is separated from the wall by about an inch. One nem lives back there and the coral beauty sleeps there at night.
 
I think it looks pretty good. If you have a way to open up so that you get flow between the front and back of the structure that would help but other that I like what I see.
