i would guess alot of it has to do with being a 8ft tank and a fair amount of flow. thats alot of water to have to add daily i would def look into hrv for the house:):)

300g a month in evaporation

Is that relevant? Your alternative is arbitrarily adding them in through water/ salt mix that has an indeterminable amount.

HRV's remove moisture from the air, I need to infuse moist into the house so the tank doesn't evap so much.
