Opinions on scape

[RoadGlideRon]

Hi..

Just getting started with my Tideline 62g AIO. the LFS had me buy 2 Carib-Sea Arches boxes.. 8 pieces.

i can create several caves and holes within my 'scape'. but asking if the 'scape' is too much for this tank. this is not finished as i have to add 'flats' and push the entire 'scape' back about 1 inch.

thank you,
R

I don’t think this is too much. It covers an okay footprint but I would think this is more on the minimal side for rock and on the the higher side for flow. Are flats your base rock or your table tops?

I wish to have more tight and secluded nooks for sleepy hidey holes (only personal preference) but way more people than just myself have very successful tanks with more fish than I.

My only real half critique would be it might be too close on the short panel ends to clean or allow flow. I don’t think this would really be all that bad at all. I hate stacking rock so I’d call it done!
