Question for Bubble magus mini Q skimmer owners

I've got a question for Bubble magus mini Q skimmer owners.
How low can Bubble magus mini Q skimmer hang?
I'm looking for a skimmer for my AIO and mini Q is a candidate but since the water level in my skimmer chamber is low, I was wondering if the hanger on this will allow it to go down to the depth I want it to. The water level in the skimmer chamber from the top edge of the glass is about 9cm (3.54 inches) vertically. Can I get it to the desired depth or should I start looking for one of those magnet hang skimmers?

Maybe you could make a magnet holder for it

I thought about that too but I think it'd be too much trouble. If I had waterproofed magnets laying around maybe but those are hard to get for cheap where I live.

Bump.
Just to simplify the question a little more, what I want to know is the maximum distance between the red arrows (hopefully it is close to 9cm (3.54 inches) or higher). Where the bracket hangs and the marked water level.
