Nuvo 30L aquascape. Thoughts?

First time setting this tank up. What are your thoughts? Option 1, 2 or ‘your suggestions’

Option 1

Option 2

Option one is my choice; I like the solidity of the right structure, in contrast to the airiness of the left - but yours should be the one you won't mind looking at for the next few years!

I like #1 also. The heights are too similar in #2 for my tastes. Just my opinion.

What corals are you planning? If SPS you may want to center your scape under the light for par and intensity purposes. I like 3

I won’t have many spa. Mainly software and LPS

Option 7. I like the varying heights and sense of depth on the right hand structure.

I'd consider removing that flat shelf piece on the left though, IMO it looks a bit unnatural and like an after-thought. IME, that's also the sort of thing you'll knock over every time you reach into the tank.

In my opinion, in option 7: The left structure is way to big. Take out everything except for the front rock. Less is more.

I like option 7 but I would deconstruct the island on the left.......looks to unnatural to me, especially compared to how organic the structure on the right looks. Off to a great start!

Option 8

Found a cool arch rock at the LFS
