rockwork?

I need to start purchasing rock for my 125 aggressive and I'm having a hard time deciding. I think I'm mostly going to get baserock because I'm not really wanting a lot of rock. I know the fish need hiding places but I want a lot of swimming room? Anyone have rockwork pics or suggestions?

How about a couple smaller caves on the edges and the middle wide open (or a couple small pieces here and there)?

Hey I like the idea of the caves. Thanks.
I'm not completely decided on the stock list but here's a tentative list:
radiata lion
blue throat trigger
maybe a dogface puffer (not sure with the lion though)
a couple wrasses

In aggressive tanks I like to use a couple large peices of rock. Say, 5x 25lbs peices for example. The tank looks awkward with rocks smaller than the fish, and the fish could easily topple rockwork.

Good point on the small pieces. I'm glad you suggested that before I went out and bought some rock that would have looked silly. I think I'll get some quite large pieces like you suggested and then go with the caves toward the ends of the tank. Thanks for the help guys!
