25watt UV
Great little 25watt UV , for prevention of algae blooms and ich , helps in clearing bacterial blooms , whether it’s on a reef tank or fish only you can benefit from a UV , size it correctly and flow amounts you won’t be disappointed, setup with a valve to slow water when needed, most of the time it runs at rated flow, slow down when an out break or adding new fish to reduce the chances of ich spreading if new addition had it coming in to tank, when using on a QT tank it can help reduce the stress by clearing ich quickly , only needing meds at half dose, a small water change helps clear and reduce amount of toxins
