changed to refugium and now water evaporates faster

Yea im at a gallon per day. Figured out what it is. My inlet pipe is producing alot of bubbles and i can watch the bubbles just popping water in the air when they hit the surface so thats got to be whats making it go quicker. I was gonna try to solve it but i think im gonna leave it cuz it creates alot of flow in the first chamber along with my protien skimmer so the detritus wont settle at the bottom

 

Ordered acrylic for my sump cover cut to size from TAP plastics. Very happy with the cost and results. I did notch a couple cutouts with a dremel.

 

ATO units are worth the money. Better than dragging the water through the house daily to topoff. Invest in a good one up front to save you problems later.
