Just remember, if it meets your future coral placement requirements, flow, etc., the most important thing to remember is if you like it. You are the only one that gets the pleasure of seeing it everyday. Besides, in all likelyhood you'll end up making some changes down the road. Here's an great thread if you haven't stumbled on it yet.

I agree with the other posters. If you like it and the flow in the tank is good...stick with it. But, you asked for thoughts so here are mine: 1. Make sure there is flow in the rear and enough room to clean the back of the tank. 2. I would add some rock where I put the red outlines. Keep it low and give it a smooth transition into the sand. Just extend your formation and give yourself an even layout. It'll add more surface area for corals too.

Rock scaping is a personal preference type of thing. One person might like a tight stack in the middle of the tank, another might like the entire back wall covered and even another might like a few pieces scattered here and there.
Personally I like cliffs, overhangs and caves. Places for fish to hide but not tightly stacked rocks. I also like more than one structure if there's room in the tank.
Like it was said before, at the end of the day you are the one that has to be happy with it.
