| Bristles are annoying because they multiply so fast but they supposedly help eating waste and such, your choice really. My light is 9-9.5" off the water. From the water to the bottem glass. Top of the fixture is at 12".

Looks good to me man. Will start looking really good once you get some Coraline spreading over those rocks. You waiting on lighting upgrades until you get coral?
