I too enjoyed watching the video! I just finished doing the aquascaping in my tank and I think I did pretty good on the rule of 1/3rds!

I liked this presentation. I think he covered most of the basics. The only thing I think he might have touched on more is viewing your rock as a canvas for the corals. In other words, it is tough to resist the urge (especially as a newbie) to view the shape you create with your rocks as a finished product. The result of doing so, IMO, is that the shape is lost when corals grow in, or even worse, there isn't enough room for corals to grow in (rocks are piled too high). So the only thing I would add is envisioning where corals will be placed and what the aquascape will look like when grown in. That is definitely a small point tho - really excellent presentation....
