Is my rock work too high, if I plan on keeping soft corals and maybe a few sps later down the road?

What light fixture is that? You should rent or buy a par meter.

The light is a Nicrew 150w, I plan on adding more lighting later on but yeah I haven’t gotten around to taking any PAR measurements yet..

I can also adjust it to be lower…

You would cook a lot of LPS under that. I definitely don't think too little light will be a concern. Personally I don't think your scape is too high. You're going to have to play with the lighting intensity. Acclimate your LPS slowly.
