Darren,
It is a rather pretty tank and the fish look healthy.

I think it would be even better if you varied the height of the rock, as the level of the rocks from side to side seems the same to my old eyes. Try having some of the rocks a little higher and some of the rocks a little lower. Also try getting some space between the rocks so the fish have places to swim through and hide in. Have some of the rock more forward towards the front of the tank.
You can also get some corals that help create the effect of height or with a color that brings your eyes to different points in the tank.
But it is a very nice aquarium and my suggestions are only given as you asked for them. It is yours and it should please you most of all.

I've took your advice on my tank and made it look better and bigger but have a big open swim space on the right of my tank.
when i say big about a forarms length (i have a big tank) but have raised the height and lowerd and moved others to random it and i like it so i just thought i would say thank you from me. sorry darren for hijacking this thread mate

also darren do you have kids? if so try making LR with them saves money but you wont be able to add for about 6-8weeks minamum theres a thread some where on makin it. or even if you don't just try making some you'll have fun
me and my boy are making some tommorro.
