There is no equilibrium. and that is a common thought, that there 
must be.  One adds food, the fish produce waste and evaporation adds 
to concentration. Partial changes only remove portions of it. The 
same food, fish waste and evaporation continues to build.

There is only one way to get back to the start . . . Change it all.
