My cheap nano top off

Okay so having my 4 gallon setup for a few weeks Ive realized how bad evaporation on small tanks is, so before buying an ATO I tried something different. I took a watering bulb, a clip off a syphon, and the rubber grommet off a hookah to make a RO/DI reservoir that could sit on top of the tank. When water evaporates past the stem of the bulb water flows out until the tank is filled again. Simple but its been working! Let me know what you guys think, oh and it holds about three bottles of water in the bulb so its not great for a bigger tank but perfect for me

Great job on that. Basically a water cooler for the fish to hang around and gossip at. :D One guy I work with suggested that for my tank, but is isn't large enough for that.

Haha i actually picked it up from marshalls for $2, I still dont know what it is but it was absolutely perfect for what I wanted. Im thinking you could also just use a round bottom flask, should be the same thing
