How many gallons a day can I expect to top off running a 220g?
 
Depends. Whats your light source? Amount of moister in the air? Surface area? Couple variables to consider.
 
Alot of variables,like open or closed top.
Amount ac runs
But my 180 loses about a gallon a day and I'll know what the 240 loses when I finally fill it up lol

Not bad. Was expecting more for some reason...Thank you!

Its a euro braced acrylic tank. Lights will just be cheap lay on top...at least at first...:cool: not sure amount of moister in air... or surface area...Thank you!
 
I lose 2-3+ gallons a day on my 100G depending on room temperature, humidity, Lighting type and schedule, fans or chiller, surface area of the display and sump, surface agitation, skimmer activity etc. Way too many variables for anyone to answer. I lose 2.5-3 gallons a week out of my 16G bowfront nano so 1 gallon a day out of a 220 would be about impossible in my mind.
