The right size UV for a RedSea Reefer 350

[Keen4]

FINALLY got it all finished and set up! Word to the wise: Dont ever lose these unions for the UV, they're super expensive to replace!! This isn't exactly ideal for my set up preference but its a top line UV and I had to have it. I honestly hate having to see this UV every time I walk by the tank. But its al good.

I know how you feel. I have one hanging off the back of my 525 too. Have not figured a way to disguise or cover it up yet.

Yea I’m ok with this set up. I knew what I wa a getting into ascetics wise. I’d much rather this than a HOB totally visible from the front of the DT and upon entry to my home from afar. Since I started this monster up all of my anemones and coral are stretched in size! Everything is so huge and expanded. Not exactly sure if it’s related or what but it’s really cool to see.

Has anyone with the plastic housing uv setups had issues with the plastic degrading on the inside? My pond uv destroyed the inside of the plastic in less than 2 years.

Can't imagine how you'll accomplish that even with cutting the back wall because of how space constrained you are. The only option I see is cutting into the side wall.

I did it- Check it out

Hey, are you still using the S2? Is it enough for your setup?

I have an aqua uv 25 watt in my 350, it’s a tight fit but works for me.

Can you send me a pic of your fit please

I have an AquaUV 25 watt in my 350. I ran soft lines and it has it's own pump. I mounted it behind the skimmer on the back wall.. super tight but it made it.

Can you send me a pic of it fitting
