looks good to me. Only thing id change is making one structure slightly taller then the other for a more asymmetrical look. The lack of symmetry would imo bring more symmetry if that makes sense.

Thank you for your opinion!

I know exactly what you mean and it makes perfect sense.

I was actually hoping to achieve a different height in one of the "islands" with corals. So when I was trying different heights with the structures, I decided that this more symetrical height will allow me to choose which structure to make taller with corals and therefore change the look of the islands.

It is very hard to tell (with the rock being so white), but there is actually alot more depth and slopes to the "islands" that tends to get washed out and blended in the pics.

I think it is one of the nicest "bare" aquascapes I have seen. I wouldn't change a thing.

Very well done

Exactly. I get what you mean have for example tabling or short stocky acros on one island then say stags and taller branching types on the other.

I like the little cove area especially haha a good place for some nice frogspawn or euphyllia (spelling)

Yea the "V" or "U" shaped island on the right was something that I was kinda torn on for quite awhile. I wasn't sure if it looked tacky or not.

I think its now going to be one of my favorite areas to aquascape and build off of.
