If you spent some time with some different shapes and sizes and perhaps some epoxy you might be able to play around with the rockwork so that it doesn't just look like a backhoe dropped a bunch of rocks in...unfortunately most people's tanks appear that way. Those tanks that do not, usually the people are scuba divers that have seen how rockwork looks in the ocean. There should be shelfs and overhangs and such, pillars straight up and valleys...just a suggestion since you have not really gone that far with the tank. I am not saying it does not look good, but it could look a whole lot better and more unique...just an idea.
I agree, however, you also have to remember that our tanks arent very wide, and most tanks, not all but most have that rock wall feel, because our tanks arn't wide enough to add depth to our aquascape, when you get to steve weast size, then the depth piece comes more into play.
