    The tank has been running with fresh water for about a week and it is losing about 1/2 gallon of water a day to evaporation. It looks like I will need a top off system.

    Great looking cube. What's the purpose of the white plastic screen on the bottom?

    -Sorry, probably very basic... I'm new to all of this though ;D
