How often do you rearrange your aquascaping in your reef tanks? Is it good to change the location of flow pumps?

i myself havent moved a rock since i got every thing just the way i want it though i've heard alot about people changing up their setup every 6 months or so just to keep it fresh and new/ i hear its good for the live rock to move it about. ???? got me though, i dont understand why.

I move mine around when I feel like it. It doesn't hurt the fish. I found a baby sea urchin YAY. Also I found my pom pom crab. It was so neat although I did get eat up my bristleworms so watch out.

I redid it 4-5 times over 3 months, then again that was during the cycle and with only a few fish...

I havent changed my aquascape since I finally got it the way I like it.
It wont hurt anything to change flow patterns, but if you have to do so because of dead spots I would add more flow.
