You shouldn't add it to top off water because you dont know exactly how much evaporates a day and it can vary because of different factors that cause evaporation.

I agree that its not good to dose with topoff.

Your tank could go quickly out of balance between cal and alk if your automatically adding alk in an unknown quantity with no matching cal addition.

Use limeater for topoff, that will smooth your pH swing while adding cal and alk.
