My JBJ Fixture Is only 3 ½” off the water but then it does have a acrylic shield to protect the bulbs!

I float mine !!!!

Actually the ones I have are 5 - 6 " above the water.
Mine on my main reef are really not for growth but mainly for pre halide and post halide . Like sunrise and sunset.
The other is on a fuge that is on 24/7 and grows caulerpa rather nice.
