I'm lucky, I have 24 inches from the top of the tank to the top of the built in. My lights are about 10 inches off the water. I Mounted the lights and reflectors to a piece of 3/4" plywood and they are supporedt by a 2x2 on each end. This allows me to push the lights back against the rear wall when working.
You are more than welcome to stop by and take a look.
Cheers,
Al
