It's hot so I have a fan on the aquarium, which results in FAST evaporation.

I'm dripping R/O water into the tank to compensate, because when the water evaporates, the salinity goes UP

Any suggestions, considerations, knowledge born from experience?
 
Keep doing what you're doing.

How handy are you? You can put together an auto-topoff system using a float valve, or a float switch plus a solenoid valve if you have a little spare time.

Right now I'm just using a solenoid valve on a timer for the 20. For the 90, I am putting a float valve in the sump, hooked to a 16 gallon carboy.
