FishyFishy! will become famous soon enough

I'd say that is normal. It really depends on the open surface area of open water. I have a 30 gallon 24 X 24 with a completely open top and I loose that much easily in a day.

If you had glass tops, they help with evaporation, but then oxygen exchange gets lowered as well.
