+1 There are many aquascape strategies, but I feel this philosophy makes a successful water movement strategy (and nutrient export) a little easier to accomplish. I also like it because it makes things a little easier to clean, and I like the look of some open space.
With that said however, making the wife happy should be a very high priority......

Figured i'd post an updated pictured.
Got a couple new corals, couple rocks, a conch, moved some corals around, added loc-line to regulate the flow better, and lost a fish.
Pretty sure the Anthias jumped, but no body was found, i'm thinking the dog ate it.
Coralline is really taking off on the back wall.
Tank is 6 weeks old.

Comments? Critiques?
Still have some re-arranging to do, way too much stuff on the sandbed.
A local reefer was giving away corals, picked up quite a few but haven't placed everything yet.
All if any master aquascapers want to share some tips, feel free to make suggestions.

Can't help with the wife issue. I can offer a few tips from a design prespective:
Symterical layouts are boring, allows the eye to be lazy.
Create visual intrest by changing the height of the rocks, one side higher than the other for example.
Use an area, offset from center with no rock.
The cave is a good idea, offset it though form the center, also don't use two, kinda like the symetry thing, odd numbers are more interesting.
