Looks really nice. Caves are always really awesome to have, especially if you decided to get some cleaner shrimp down the road, cause they'll chill underneath there and you can watch them "hanging out." lol. Anyway, yea it looks nice. The only thing that you want to watch out for is the one middle rock on the bottom. You generally want to avoid lots of rock contacting the sandbed, because underneath detritus will build up, and it'll eventually cause pollution problems under the rock.
Otherwise, looks great. It looks like you're taking your time enough, but you want to watch out once that tang starts to grow... 29 is a lil small for it.. (My 24g nanocube came with 10 fish when i bought it from someone else, including a yellow tang, so I know what overstocked looks like, and you're nowhere near that.)
Are you skimming in your sump? Cheato/refugium?

Yea, definitely be on top of that.... I've actually had a rockslide while I was away on vacation for a week... Fortunatly the corals were fine, and the rocks landed on some sand... but inches away from a big spot where there was no sand...
The nice thing is that the sandbed can disperse most of the force of the impact of a rock falling, as long as the rock doesn't have any sharp edges to go through the sandbed.

A friend and I moved someone's 20 gallon fw tank once.... it was full of pebbles.. and my friend thought it would be okay to move it with all the pebbles in it and half full of water....
yeeeeeeeah.... On the upside, it was in a lowered bar area.... On the downside... It was in a lowered bar area...
The bottom of the tank just gave out, and spilled probably 20 gallons of icky fresh fish water on the floor, and we just scooped up the fish into cups, used towels... and prayed that they wouldn't care since they were moving out anyways.
