uv steralizer

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...

I'm moving on from the reefing hobby and have decided to let go of my reef art collection. I have some pieces I commissioned a couple of years back from artist Elain @lazycoffeedesigns. She has been at some of the big Aquarium hobby shows and been featured by many of the big sites and channels...

Hello reefing friends. I recently upgraded an IM25 Lagoon (pictured) to an IM50 Lagoon and I thought, what a great opportunity to start my first build thread. I’ve been in the hobby coming up on 3 years and have had a few different tanks in that time frame. Most have either been sold or in...

Looking for the 57watt UV sterilizer from Aqua Ultraviolet. Pls pm price n pictures Local pick up or shipped to Edison NJ 08820

Before I do something I regret….does anyone know if you can spot dose UV to amphidinium in a successful manner? I created the contraption in the pictures with the idea of placing it on the sand bed for a minute or so in each area during the day when Amphidium is out. The orange cup is just to...

Anyone have experience with the IM UV units? They have a gravity fed and a pump fed for water supply. The pump fed is 1W more and double the price, but I’ve seen a couple people say they wish they had gone with the pump fed version...

Can you hang the aqua ultraviolet hob one on the sump? Or can that part of it come off and you can hook a hose barb to it?

Welcome to my CDA tank build!! I picked the tank up from another local reefer that was the original owner in Dec 2022. He had owned it for a little over I year I think. So it's new to me and plus he sold it for a killer deal. Originally I wasn't going to build a bigger tank than what I...

I know that most reefers would recommend ignoring ORP, and to an extent, I do ignore it, unless I see a sudden change. I just turned on my UV sterilizer, running at about 400gph on a dedicated pump, and my ORP dropped from 230mV (I know, it's a bit low already) to 170mV. I thought UV would have...
