I have a 30x30x18 deep cube that I have started Rock scape. I have some ideas but I'm not happy yet. I would like to see a few others shallow tanks and see what your rock scape look like and how you all go about making your tank look spectacular. I will show you a picture of my first attempts that I'm not exactly happy with. I have to stay below the water line at least 5-6 inches so my sps can grow up and branch out. I'd appreciate any pics or ideas on my rock work. Thanks.

First attempt

At first I didn't like it but as the corals grew it took shape and I think it looks great actually thanks for sharing beautiful tank. Please anyone else post pics this is inspiration for me
 
Those must be large rocks u have . Food for thought. I'd consider removing a few .Think about adding some dry tonga branch to mix things up .

My old 30 gallon deep blue shallow. Used Tonga. Tallest Pieces came out of the water. Gave it a cool looking visual.
 
Appreciate the pics and compliments I like the general look but it lacks a little something
