I am trying to my aquascape, I created a few standing features, but an not sure of what Is more effective for a future SPS dominated tank. I have plenty of rock if I need to add smaller or different pieces.
Any suggestions appreciated.

The tank measurements are 24”Dx48”Lx20”H.
here are a few of the arrangements I have tried:
4 pillars

3 pillars, forth (tall one from the previous picture) laying down

3 pillars only:

I think one of the three with the 3 pillars looks good, there is depth, height and character to all of them. There is places for fish to hide as well as different mounting heights for fish. I would personally go with the 2nd or 4th one as there are islands for corals that you want to be isolated and the islands also add a lot of character.

I do not like the first one with the 4 pillars. Seems a bit too uniform and doesn't have much depth, look like it is just one straight line and basically the same height across.

Thanks for the feedback, I don’t have a video of #1 to show the space around it. When I was originally planing it out, it looked better in my mind then it did in the tank.
 
I like the 4th the best. The small rocks to the right will give some lower light loving coral a good spot as well! Zoa garden, scan garden, Shrooms whatever lol. But ultimately you are the one looking at it daily!
 
Im putting my aquascape together now as well. Personally i like 3 or 4 the most, having the space and depth to it looks good.
