My top-mid level swimmers like the higher levels too...gives them more room to stay away from the bottom dwellers which can get a little testy during spawning. But mostly it's more your prefference to the noise level. I try not to let mine get more then a couple of inches from the top. Unless the room is very dry and I get a lot of evaporation I just wait til w/c day and top off then.
GS, I would love to see a pic of your filter wearing boxers. LOL
