uv steralizer

When having an all in one aquarium there’s the filter sponges and carbon bag and ceramic plug bag do I take all of that out and only run the iv aterilizer or run only ceramic rings and let the iv sterilizer do it’s thing?

L for some help. I added a Pentair 18w UV to my tank to help fight Dino’s. The water and stuff looks good now after running it but it’s causing huge temperature issues. I was told to run 24/7 which is fine other than my temp steadily increasing. I went from 78 to almost 82 in 24 hours. Had to...

I am looking to buy a UV Sterilizer to fight dinos. I was looking on amazon and see "Jebao PU-36 Pond and Aquarium Clarifier, 36-watt" Would this be okay for killing dinos in a salt water tank. My DT is 60 gallons and i have a 20 gallon sump, all in all i have around 65 gallons of water in the...

Just wondering if this 36w uv is too much on a 90 gallon system. If not how much flow would I want through it

Hi all, I’m looking for some advice on flow rates to battle dino’s in my 60L nano. I’m looking at getting a uv steriliser with a flow rate of 500L per hour. (It’s the smallest one I can find with a reputable brand) I’ve been hearing that 1-3 times tank volume per hour is good at battling them...

Aqua UV sterilizer 15 watt classic (black) - Used for 18 months. Sold

I learned about using UV sterilizer after a private tour behind the scene at Charleston Public Aquarium. Every setup they had was connected to one or two UV sterilizer. I learned that it is very important for success. I invested in 80w, and for 7 years, my tank never crashed and I never had any...

Could I put an inline UV sterilizer with the sump return pump, maybe use some silicone tubes coming out of the pump into UV out and convert it back to pvcs? any help appreciated

Hello, I was curious if anybody has personally used any of the UV sterilizers on Amazon in their reef tank with success? I’ve seen numerous options at reasonable prices. I have a 60 gallon cube ext in which I’d like to run one on. I’m confused about which wattage and if any of the UV sterilizers...

I'm looking to get a UV for a 120g +sump to preventatively curb disease. It seems the 3 choices people talk about are pentair, aqua ultraviolet, or lifeguard. From reviews I've seen the pentair degrades after not even a year and starts exposing uv to the open room which seems very not ideal. The...

I've never much used them so I don't know what's good, but I'm looking for something that's good bang for your buck that I could potentially plumb on a manifold. I'd prefer to have one pump for the return and another pump for running all my equipment on this build if possible. Preferably...
