Exactly what I got. This is going to be a very similar build. Are you planning on using the filter socks? What’s your plans for the rear compartments.
I've got a guy working on 3d printing me a filter floss holder to drop into both sides. If it works out well I'll send everyone his link! He just took dimensions from me today

Frog spawn coral. Mixed info for placement so permanent home still pending. I just got it tonight from the ark and it started to open back up right away.

Just added and icecap ATO for the tank. So glad I decided to spend the money on this. No more return compartments running dry. It’s been up and running for about 4 days. Using a 5 gallon water jug as the reservoir.

Got the baskets from Kreative rides!!! They were packaged super well. Great experience so far. Received a thank you email and they sent me a note with my delivery. I am extremely appreciative they decided to make some baskets for this tank. I HATED the filter socks.

Those look clean! I may have to switch out depending on how my time with my printed media baskets go.

Looks nice. I also ordered some floss baskets from rhinosreef . I may have to get me some of these and check them out. Keep us updated.

I purchased from a LFS. Ark pet shop in merrillville Indiana. Maybe they would ship to you? With the price you could afford to pay some shipping and still be under the price of many other tanks.
The ark is a nice little lfs!

So how are your Tideline tanks coming along? Looking at the 31 lagoon tonight at a lfs. Any issues, regrets? How is the glass and the silicone work? Is the rear sump compartment working out ok? Seems to only be slightly smaller than the Innovative Marine units right?

No regrets in purchasing this tank at all. It’s a quality tank glass and silicone work was good as well. I am however wishing I went bigger but I think that’s typical of many in the hobby.

Do you ever run into the issue of the side that drains faster switches? I have my ato setup on the left side but it switches often, I cant seem to find a happy median with it. I upgraded pumps to sicce syncra 1.0's and have one of them dialed back using the internal flow adjuster, and it still seems to drain faster, within days of putting my ato sensor on the faster side, it switches sides. frustrating..

I don't have that tank, but this is what Planet Aquariums says about that: "the 62G Lagoon features 2 separate return pump chambers and 2 return pumps for improved circulation & filtration. One chamber WILL drain faster than the other. Be sure to put your ATO on the faster-draining chamber, or keep the water level at least 1/2" above both return pump baffles."

Hope this helps.
