    Just about 3 to 4". Question is how big is your tank? How deep is your sand bed? If your tank is too small the star can starve. My understanding is that you need about 100 gallons for each. Mine is 90 soon to be 150 with 2 to 3 inches of sand. I had the sand sifter for about six months now with no problems.
