im glad i found this post. i can't believe how much water my 75g is evaporating with my light set up. i don't know the numbbers, but i know it has dropped about half an inch in 1.5 days. my RO unit is still backordered at my LFS, im going to have to see about an auto top off unit. my salinity was up to 1.028!!
