    Do you have an automatic system to handle water evaporation?
    If so, what do you use? :inquisiti

    Tunze Osmolator on my 58 gallon. I am trying to set up an inexpensive one for the 10gallon I am working on...something about an airtight jug and some airline tubing....I will post pics and such if it works well! ;D

    I have 3 float switches, and a multi-channel peristaltic pump sitting on a shelf. I've never assembled the top-off, though! Anyone want to come over and have a DIY party?? :p

    I just set up a float valve. Man is it nice not to have to worry about top off ever day!
