I have been monitoring the evaporation in my sump during the last week. I had added a lot of extra water and I was amazed about how fast the level was going down! I decided to put some marks to be able to evaluate it better. Each day I have added a piece of cello tape to mark the water level. The big piece at the bottom is the minimum water level for the pump to work. I have made some calculations and I am losing 2L of water per day. I didnt use the fan, lights or skimmer, the system was running only with the main pump. Is this normal??? What can I do?

Hi All, i currently have a 4ft tank uncovered and close to the window. its pretty hot in the area. i read around and evaporation would cause me to top up about 4L/day? my real concern here is the top up of fresh water would help maintain my salinity but wouldn't it affect other parameters too like PH, Calcium, KH since topping up fresh water would dillute the solution. Thanks in advance
