Hey guys. Wanted to share what I did for placement of my pentair 40W UV on my waterbox 130.4 tank. It’s a huge unit and does not fit under the stand. It looks horrible on top of the tank. So I mounted it vertically in a tall side cabinet and plumbed it to the sump. It’s worked out perfect and it hides everything!! I also included unions and a drain at the bottom of the UV for easy maintenance. I purchased this tall white side closet on sale on Amazon for about 100$. It’s well made and it’s actually a great utility closet for extra Reefing supplies (able to put in 2 shelves up top). Matches the cabinet and also my electronics cabinet. Tank is still in the ugly phase, slowly growing coralline at this point! Acros are happy. So if you have the space next to the tank , id consider doing this, as it seems like size of these UVs is the limiting factor when it comes to purchasing one!!
