Here is mine. Right about an inch tall if I took the plug away. I’m going to ease my way up to the top of my rock work over time. 90 gallon tank on a 500 gallon multi tank system. Flow with a pair of WAV pumps, lights are radion g4pros. ATI essentials provide the elements. Even though I’m a 40+ year aquarist, I’m a newb at SPS but am really inspired to be participating with you guys! Alk is at 8.4 and calcium is at 490 today.

Just my suggestion, I would use a plastic ruler and not a tape measure as it is steel, unknown paint, and not to mention the unknown type of factory lubrication within the tape measure...

Good points. I wasn’t thinking I guess. I sure won’t use that again. Thanks.

Coral received today and pic is 90 minutes after in the tank. Can’t decde if I like the ruler behind or in front based on where I think I’ll mount this guy. Either way ruler is up against and aligned to the bottom of the plug.
