Stop and think about it. Your coral on the rock can easily stick 2-3 inches past the rock, more if you get into SPS or LPS down the road. Then add the thickness of your hand while scraping. You can build it however you want, it's your tank, but I'm telling your from experience to give yourself plenty of room for general maintenance on the tank.
