How far is the water surface from the bottom of the cross brace with everything running?

I run a Quiet One 4000 for return. I prefer a slower turnover, so works perfect. I could go more though if I wanted.

Im running a Eheim 1262. Maybe have to go to a MaxiJet. I don't require a ton of flow from it either but worry how my 2 MP40,s, RW 8,s & Maxspect 150 will make much surface movement

Pump should be fine. I have 2 Tunze 6055 and 2 Jebao RW15 and waves splashing out of the tank. Not an issue.
