Finally, after spending 2 weekends and going through 3 revisions I have completed my auto topup unit.
It basically consists of a float valve where the water level isand as the water evapourates it is replaced by fresh water supplied and powered by gravity. Hopefully there are some photos of it here (using my iPhone to blog this for the first time).
Construction consists of acrylic cut to size. It is held there by a clamp (so it is easy to adjust if needed). It has been running for a few days now and my water level has remained constant. Quite impressed with my handywork actually.

Finally after nearly 18 month, I’m adding salt into the tank. Aiming for a 1.025 salinity.

No pictures as of yet as it is far too cloudy. More details later.
