I have a 4 bulb t5 HO light on a 55 gal. How high should I have my lights above the water line?
That all depends on what lighting level you're trying to achieve. If you have co2 and good ferts you can keep the fixture as low as you want, or if you need to lower the lighting amount you can diy a piece of metal to hang the lights higherI have a 4 bulb t5 HO light on a 55 gal.

How long do you have your lights on? What are your nitrate levels? A phosphate test in a high light tank is extremely helpful. When you find that "sweet spot" of nutrient levels in your tank there should be nothing wrong with keeping your lights the way they are
