I recently added a 9w Pond One UV sterilizer to my tank.
What I've noticed in 2 months
1. Far less film on glass, so less cleaning.
2. Sand cleaner.
3. Next to no crud exits return after restarting return pump.
4. Far cleaner water.
5. Reef mat roll lasting 10 days longer.
Lots of benefits for $200
 
Glad it's working for you mate :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes: It's all about continuous improvement, whatever works for you is usually the best way to go!
