Ozone what is it that affects the tank!!

[Anonymous'Reefer90]

Hi group, I have been using ozone in my tank for some time now at a ratio of 35 mg/litre x 800 real litres. I would like to know if ozone really affects the silicone in the tank, and other plastic devices such as wave generators, bulkheads, return pumps, etc. etc. My main concern is the silicone in the tank. My equipment is an Enaly Ozac 200 and I think I am using it at a low ratio and I only use it at night from 10pm to 7am. I would like to hear opinions and experiences, thank you.

I don't think you have anything to worry about. Where you're doing the injection of the ozone (either in a skimmer or reactor) the concentration of ozone is much higher than is generally in the tank. So you can see degradation of plastics there if you're using things not meant to withstand ozone.
