62 Tideline AIO

[Cheesus]

Coming back to the hobby after selling out not long ago. I had to move and sold everything. Thought I could be done with the hobby but here we are lol

I am ordering a Tideline 62 AIO.

The only equipment I have is 2 4k icecap gyres. These are gonna be way too much for this tank but I will turn them way down. I have been looking for the mesh nem guards for those and have not had luck yet.

For lights I am thinking of NooPsyche K7 PRO III.

This is going to be a bare bottom tank. I like the idea of zoas/shrooms on the bottom glass.

This one will be fun to aquascape I think. This build will be a slow one.

I'm currently cycling the same tank. I'm curious if yours has the shadow wave return? Mine came with what looks like 1/2" locline.

Yeah that’s what I received as well. Not what I thought was pictured but it’ll work I guess

I've seen a lot of complaints about the shadow wave return so I guess nothing to be upset about.

Yeah I’m not super worried about it. I could always print some. I’m just trying to get my rock dried up so I can get things moving.

I’ve got my lights in now. Still waiting on my mounts.

That tank is sweet! Can't wait to see it stocked!

Thanks! Going for a clown harem and anemones. Waiting on rock to dry out is a painful process. lol

 

[Cheesus]

Gyre almost didn’t fit lol

 

[Cheesus]

Decided against the clown harem, there is just not much success out there and I dont feel like I have the room in this tank, so two clowns it is. I don't want heavy bio load so, any other stocking suggestions?

 

[Daasmo]

Following for suggestions as well. Only things I know I want are 2 clowns, pistol shrimp/goby pair and eventually dragonets.

The no sand route for me makes it a little tougher. I need to find some nem safe options.

Cool looking scape!

Thanks! It’s hard to not do a rock wall in this tank with it being skinny and I didn’t want to break and glue rock.

No sand so need all the rock I can fit.

Yeah, I have them and would prefer to just have locline

Only down side is the hole for the bulkhead seems pretty small. I bought the
"Lifegard Aquatics 1/2-Inch Standard Threaded Bulkhead" that was suggested in another thread and it would not fit.

Interesting, not sure on that one.
