How high is the 9002's cup above the tank?

[amheck]

In preparation for my 9002 to arrive, I need to build some legs for my Tek hood. Right now it's just laying on the tank.

Roger, or anyone else, do you know how far the collection cup sticks up above the tank? I want to build some acrylic legs for the tek hood this weekend and needed to know how far up they should be to make sure the new hood clears it.

Thanks!

You will need about 4" of clearance, the cup is about 3" in diameter, you need another 3" to be able to remove the cup, because the tube goes about that far into the skimmer
