Why is my tank losing water2007-11-24 23:44:03

Or if not, then you have a leak in the seal of your tank -- a small one by the sound of it. Try a tank that is plastic, an all-one-piece rather than a glass one whose pieces are siliconed together.

evaporation

Evaporation occurs in every fish tank and is completely normal. All you have to do is pour a little bit of water in there every couple of days if you really want to stop it. As for the water going down when the filter goes on, its because some of the water is in the filter.

Good Luck! :0)

evaporation drrrrrrr

It is evaporation, and the air bubbles make more evaporation by the air breaking the surface of the water and atomising.The heat from the lights also play a role .

I have a six foot tank, and i can see the level dropping each day.

Amazing how much the water level drops in a week.You can top it up with fresh water, but not large quantities because of the chlorine & chemical content, and the temperature change causes ick ( white spot ), if the change is too sudden.

I usually catch some rain water, or put tap water in a large container out of the way somewhere and let it stand for a few days to settle before topping with it.

interesting to know that pure rain water is not good for fish.
