Just measured mine for ya Rich. It's about 16" to the top of the canister, but then with the elbow/connectors on it that's about 22" to the top of those.

I agree thats why I was asking for measurements, as the stand that comes with the tank had a fx5 under it, so I need to know what size tank I can fit under there
