I just redid mine last night after reading an article on TRT regarding aquascaping having back, mid and foreground and the four different zones to hit with your eye and the color wheel.

It turned out pretty nicely but I have to reconstruct on side that slipped. Oh we'll, the ability to make improvements.

I love my aquascape! I took the time to find the right dry rock pieces though and knew exactly how I wanted it. Turned out great and lots of space for SPS and some LPS. I have higher ledges, middle ledges and lower ledges. It works great. Just make sure the highest pieces are set back so when the corals grow, they don't shade the levels below them.

Coral placing is definitely a challenge. I hear everyone about trying to remove a fused coral from the rock. I sit there with a tiny little flat head screwdriver and dig at the base for a while until I can just pop off the coral. Some are troublesome, while most just pop right off.

I try moving things around before they spread too far but hard to predict what shape the corals are going to grow like.
