Does anyone run the GKM UV sterlizer in a biocube 16 or 32? Where did you put it? I want to run the one with its own pump not the powerhead one.

I have one in my 200xl. Which I know isn't an AIO but I did run it in the tank untill am algae bloom cleared. I moved it to the sump after to use as needed. Ot wasn't as ugly as I might have thought in the tank

It’s too big to go in the tank part of my biocubes. It’ll take up too much space. I’m thinking I can fit it in with the actual return pump in my 32 but in the 16 I’m thinking it would have to go in chamber 1 when I smash the false floor out.

There were issues with Antimony on these units in the past. Apparently some say they have fixed it. For my money and peace of mind I would go elsewhere.

numerous other threads on it. At least worth a look up, if you value your livestock imo.
