Looks good! But it'll be hard to keep that glass clean with the rocks right up against it.

Dang that's enough... I think I get about 1 to 1.5 a day but that's on 15 gallons (10 gallon tank with approx 5 gallons of sump volume) How much does it swing your salinity? Do you have an auto top off?

is there a cover on the tank? just wondering as that seems like quit a bit of evap.
