what's your tank sizing?

think its too bare, the 6 lines wrasse in my experience can be a bully king.

your rockscaping kind of .... unstable to me. are they firmly stacked?

else dont want your fishs sleep-sleep then suddenly the rocks collapsing... :D

For a first, do consider a nice dark background... I think that will help the overall appeal IMO.

I think u wasted quite a lot of space behind the rocks, why not push your rocks more to the back since your's is not a double-sided tank. I also think adding a taller peak will make your tank looks more complete (currently too much white on top), unless you are leaving space for some really gigantic coral.

What's your set temperature? Do add LS slowly... I like your revised rock works with coral selections.

Show us more :lol:
