    Default Uv light opinions

    Opinion on adding Uv light to my 75 gallon tank. I bought a corallife uv ultra twist light, 9v. Powering it with a Fluval 106 canister filter to keep flow rate around 150gph, which is what the manufacturer recommends. I also run a Fluval 306 as the main filtration and a hang on the back filter as well.

    What’s your experience with running uv? How long should I keep light on each day? Do they help keep water quality prestine? Kill parisites?bacteria? What brand and model do you use?

    I was going through the archives because I read some very interesting articles on them a while back. I couldn’t find anything browsing UV lights, but when I typed in UV sterilizers? BINGO! Maybe give that a try?
