I’m looking into having a custom tank built (no experience in diy whatsoever so not taking the chance) and they have offered to plumb the UV sterilizer into the return pump.
I want to use the UV mainly for ich control (not elimination) and eventually algae control if need be. I know specific flow rates are required for each of those two needs, so how can I achieve those flow rates if it’s plumbed into the return pump ? I suppose the return pump will be adjusted to suit the flow requirements for the whole system, not for disease control.
How does this work ?
Thanks for your help !
