Just had another look...for what it's worth I'd take the little peak in the wave trough at the back out, I think it interferes with the scapes flow and it's not needed to create tension - there's plenty there already...but just my opinion.
Those rocks at the top of the curve on the left, are they just balanced or have you fixed them with something to keep them in place. Just a word of advice if I may, when you start filling this up watch out for soil slippage as you are doing it and be on standby to catch any rocks that move or fall, the tank is lovely and I would hate to see it get scratched or damaged. One tip before filling it up, give all the soil a really good spraying until it is soaked which should stop most of it floating to the surface and causing the rocks to slip. Steve
Wonderful hardscape! Just not sure if you have thought about maintaining it - scrubbing the stones etc.... especially the top left stones if not properly fixed, will be pain to clean and as they are closest to the light, I presume will be the ones that will need most attention.

I'm interested to know if there are any long term problems or implications of having such deep substrate in that back corner?
Very interesting layout, but the top left wave with that curve back... hmmm... I'll wait to see how it develop over time. Maybe it's too big for my taste, or too dark.
love it! Cant wait to see it planted Ive got about 50Kg of dragon stone ready to go in my 120cm at the moment. Its a very hard stone to scape with and youve pulled off an excellent job here.
I keep changing my mind! Im stuck between a scree slope, angled rock in one direction with manzi wood, dragon spires pointing in different directions and a few others. Once I get the stone and wood into the tank I'll know thenHi. What do you have in mind for all your dragon stone? 50kg in 3ft is heaps. I think i have about 15kg in 2ft.
Thanks rodoselada!
@Troi, I'm going to use La Plata sand. I was going to use Sarawak (because I have some left over from another scape), but it's colour is too similar to the ohko. La Plata is more pale, so it should make for a better contrast. I'll drain the tank completely when I add the sand.
