Aquascaping is what you want it to be! No real right or wrong way to do it. That is part of the fun and gets your creative juices flowing.
Having said this, however, depending on what livestock you decide to have, you may want to rearrange your rock so that the rock doesn’t topple over. If you are going to make it a reef tank, fallen rock could crush delicate inverts, or fish and also injure corals.
Their are other factors such as water flow and coral growth encroachment as well as ease to which you can clean the algae off of the inside glass.
 
What are you planned on keeping? if reef, then look fine to me. You want to leave room for corals to grow out as well as in case you buy large colonies.
Also, make sure those rocks on top are tightly in place or secured and base rocks are flat on the tank and not sitting on top of the sand as something could shift the sand under the rock and cause to tumble.
 
I personally think the rock to water ratio looks about right, but it’s very much a personal thing how you like it.

It looks great as it is with the cave in the middle and I like how it flows away on the left and once you get fish and corals it will be very nice indeed.

But it’s you tank and your the one who is going to be staring endlessly at it! Lol
 
I know you are talking about aquascaping, but I have some concerns that you may or may not be aware of.

I noticed you have a Copperband Butterfly...
Fist of all, were you able to remove all the Mantis Shrimp?
How long has your tank been up? And cycled?
Are you planning on doing a reef biotope?
Did you ask to see your Copperband eat before purchasing it?
Do you know that they are a specialized eaters that will hardly ever accept flake or pellet foods? This type of fish doesn’t have a long track record of success in captivity for the most part, especially in a newly set up aquarium! They are even more difficult to maintain by a novice aquarist...

I want you to be successful is the reason for me asking these questions is all!
