how much clearance is required behind the aquarium?

You need 7 inches to fit. It is a squeeze at 6 inches. Btw, go on Amazon or local Hdepot and purchase the smallest fountian pump. It will improve performance 100%.

You will need minimum 7-8 inches. That will leave you with enough wiggle room just in case you have to get back there. If youre in a space where clearance is at a premium you might get away with 6 from the wall. Good luck.

The tank sits separately but the hose is 8' long so we run it behind the seating and out of sight. Not a problem for us.

You don't need any clearance behind the handle. Water temperature is changed by pulling the handle forward and it stops in the position shown in the online picture, parallel to the faucet itself.

There is an opening in the back with a rack like fixture. dimensions about 1 x 4 inches ( height x width ) and throughout the bottom there is about half inch clearance.

You'll need at least 1/2 inch clearance to use this bath mat. I measured it!!!

Yes, and you would need about 5" of clearance between the back of the tank and the wall. I have had two of these and would not recommend them however, because the connections (behind the tank) can (and for me, did) burst open, pumping the tank water like a garden hose all over the floor.

Space would none a little tight. I have a direct hose feed, don't need a tank, but still find it a bit crowded for grill pans, skeet rods, etc.

Yes it hangs on the side and needs about 4 inch clearance behind tank from wall.

Hi there :) I just looked in order to estimate. A half-inch from top of aquarium is where the max line is on mine, so that's where I would fill it to. Minimum is 3/4 inch from top of aquarium.

Hi Shana,Mine measures about 10-3/4" with the water off, and you need about 12-1/2" with it on, but even that would be very awkward. It won't fit under your shelf anyway, so that point is moot.

Looks like 3 inches to me from the back of the acquarium to the wall this filter will need 3 inches. Hope this helps.

Depending on how high you mount the light above the aquarium and how intense you want the light to be can determine how much coverage you need. If you aren't growing corals that need a ton of light, 1 light would do probably mounted 10 to 12 inches above the aquarium I would guess.

Hi, I agree with other comments. I would suggest that you would need to cover most of the base area in order to get adequate filtration circulation for the tank size.

Yes, enough clearance. You also want to make sure you leave enough clearance for the tray below.

This model would need 5-6 inches of clearance all around for proper ventilation.

About 3 feet. I had to go buy more because I didn't want the thing right next to the tank for aesthetic reasons.

You could probably get up to like a 29 gallon sump under it. The top platform is like 18x48. Minus a couple inches you could say the inside of the bottom wood panel has about 15x44 inches of space conservatively. I haven't measured but this is an educated guess. The thing is you will have to assemble the unit by sitting the tank on the bottom platform after putting together the bottom and the sides of the unit, and then assembling the top. A 20 gal long tank would fit under it comfortably. The 29 would leave like a foot of space between the top panels and the top of the tank. I think the stand is about 30 to 33 inches high.
