Default new aquascaping

I re-aquascaped my tank on Saturday, and i'm not sure if I like it. The tank still looks like a blob of live rock which I don't reaqlly like. I think I may need to get rid of some live rock or some corals. Opinions would be appriciated.

Before: corals were fighting.


After: corals still in close quarters but re-organized to limit chemical warfare.

I think it looks great! If you're gonna have a sandbed that white, you might as well be able to see it

Agreed, looks super! It 'looks' like the light is hitting the corals more. And the clams look nice where they are too!

Thanks, but my camera always make the sandbed look white, even though it might not be.

My main concern is flow through the rock work. I guess it wouldn't hurt to upgrade either.
