uv sterilizer

Hi All, I’m setting up a IM 75EXT for mix reef use after 10 years out of the hobby. Thought I would start this thread to share the build and get advice/feedback as I go along. I spent some time modifying the the plumbing kit to (1) allow for offsetting the sump in the stand to make room for...

160 watt AQUA UV sterilizer uses 4 40 watt bulbs. Good working condition. As pictured, 2" PVC slip unions included. Local pickup preferred from zip code 52101, but will ship for $60. It's big and will take a lot of packaging to ship safely.

Hi everyone, First post on Reef2Reef!! I have been using this site for information for years but finally got around to registering ha! For my RedSea Reefer 170, I have been dosing Reef Fusion Parts 1&2 to maintain my Alk/Calc/Mg into the small bubble trap baffle right before the return pump...

Looking for a UV sterilizer for my 220 gallon. PM me what you have!

Should one get two 15 Watt at 200$ or one 25Watt at 400$ ? (CAD Prices) One 15Watt for Algae and the other one for Parasite... Or 25 Watt with a in between flow rate ? Is there one better then the other ?

Does a UV sterilizer help break down/remove coral toxins? Particularly zoa or paly toxin. Long story short, my corals have been looking upset these past few months after some new frags of assorted zoas and softies were added, and water parameters are always testing stable and in acceptable...

Hello everyone, I spent 3 days dry fitting PVC and frankly I have no idea what am doing. This is my first time plumbing a reef and at this point I need external help. I read most if not all posts here about plumbing just need a little guidance if I am on the right path here. I will post a ton...

I have 75 Gallon mixed reef tank with a sicce return pump that outputs a theoretical 950 GPH connected directly to a neptune 1" flow sensor and then from the flow sensor out to an Aqua ultra 25W UV (max theoretical flow rate of 800-1200 GPH) and then out to my display - nothing else in-between...

Hey all, I bought this tank with the plumbing already configured.. now I’d like to add this coralife uv sterilizer into the system, what’s the best way to go about it? I know I have to be within a gph threshold, but that’s all I know. Just plumb it into an open ball valve? Directly off the...

Looking into to UV sterilizers and can’t find reviews for which brand(s) seem to be the best. Thoughts?

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...

Selling Aqua Advatage 15w UV. The unit needs a new bulb and a new glass sleeve. I’m not sure if the sleeve can be cleaned but I will include it. The black body of the unit could also likely use a good soak in citric acid. I definitely made the mistake of dosing my ALK to close to the inlet of...

I just purchased an Aqua Ultraviolet Advantage 2000 (8 Watt) UV sterilizer for my 7.5 gallon QT tank. I'm trying to figure out what the flow rate through the device should be. There appear to be two different recommendations on this in the instructions: 1. System Turn-Over Recommendation...

Hello All: I added a UV sterilizer to my new build and the return pump is feeding two returns nozzles. I plumbed the tank with a T going to one return nozzle and the other going to the UV sterilizer (which then comes out the other return nozzle). Two gate valves are controlling the flow to one...

I'm in between 2 options for my 155g tank. I can either go one large - possibly 40 watt Aqua Ultraviolet Classic OR I can go with 2x 15w HOB advantage filters with 2 different speeds - one for algae and one for other stuff. OR I can do the 40 on my 155g DT and I can run the 2x HOBs on my...
