Hi,

I just bought a 15 gallon high All-Glass aquarium (w/ standard 10 gal
footprint), and I'm thinking about getting the Eclipse 1 hood to go on
top of it. I've built a cabinet for it go to in, and need to know how
much vertical space the Eclipse needs above the tank. I have approx.
4.5" available, which is fine for a standard tank hood w/flo lighting,
but I don't know if the Eclipse will fit under there.

The cabinet top comes off, so maintaining the setup won't be a problem;
I just need to be sure that it'll fit under there when the top is on.
I suppose I could go to a store and measure it, but I thought someone
on the group would be able to wander over to his/her tank and just
measure it. (so I can order it online)

I have a limited amount of space behind the tank for hob filtration,
which is why I'm considering the Eclipse. Another thought was one (or
two) of those in-tank filters; I've seen that Whisper makes one, and
Duetto? Any comments on those? I'm also thinking about an UG w/
powerhead & reverse flow...I'm pretty good about vacuuming/water
changes. (I don't have any other tanks now, but have in the past).
Any thoughts?

Thanks for your help!
