So, I'm stealing this idea, from a friend of mine, and altering it slightly.
How much water do Reef2Reef members use, in a given time. Let's call in a 30 day month.
Include water used to make saltwater and water used for Top Off. In other words, don't count water that goes down the drain, making RO/DI water.
Add your total to the person who posted previous to you. Let's try to get everyone involved. The more members involved, the more of an accurate idea we can get on how much water R2R members use! It's kind of scary to consider...lol
I'll start it off.
My tanks consist of:
200 gallon Deep Dimension
40 Breeder
75 gallon
I add approximately 4-5 gallons of top off water, per day, so I'll call it 4.5 gallons/day.
I do approximately 80 gallons worth of water changes, per month.
4.5 gallons/day X 30 days=135 qallons
+
80 gallon WC per month
Total of 215 gallons per month (for a whoppin' total of 2580 gallons per year!!)
Now, the next person to post would add up their own usage and add it to my 215, for a new total. Everyone try to follow the same or similar format, so we make sure to get the math right!
Again, my monthly total is 215 gallons.
