UV Sterilizer Plumbing

[benapilot]

I got a great deal on a little UV sterilizer. I've got two reactors, GFO and Carbon.
Would I be able to plumb the outlet of either reactor through the UV? If so, which one??

Thanks!

Should be able to, don't see why not. IF flow is sufficient. Not sure which one, or if it matters really.

Can you tell us which UV you got and show a pic maybe.
How big is your tank and the wattage of the UV as it will be rated for a max amount of gallons.

A UV requires low flow rate for free swimming parasite eradication, so the GFO would probably be the better choice.

I've got a 75 Gallon tank. It's an Angstrom 2537 with a 4 Watt bulb rated for 75 gallons.

On the GFO, got it! Thanks.

Well I split the water pump. half to the UV and half to my reactor. Works great.

4 watts? Doesn't sound like enough for much.
