How much water do you lose each day due to evaporation? (POLL)

[eaze333]

I am at 1 gallon a day right now on a 75 gallon with T5 lighting. I actually lose a bit more than that in the winter. I think maybe because it is dryer in my apartment in the winter

I lose about 10 gallons a day. I have a 150, a 55, a 75, 6-20's, 2-100 gallon tubs. 2-10's, couple 5 gallon buckets for rotifers and fry. Whew, lots of water and food...lol
