I'm sure I could cut this down even more with glass tops over the sump. In my house, any open top tank loses two to three times as much water through evaporation than a closed glass top tank. With severe MTS, this is a real concern.
I was thinking of going mesh top but the evaporation rate increase has me hesitant to go that route. And yes, I am wrasse-crazy so the tops serve a double purpose. But mainly I have them to reduce evaporation.
