UV Sterilizer

Does everybody run one on thier tanks? Which is best?

I run Aquanetics Hang-on UV on my fish tanks. Also use Double Helix on my small fish tank.

I run a Coralife Turbo Twist UV Sterilizer on my tank. Use to run it 24/7, but now I run it every now and then, or when I see ick, or the fish don't feel too well. It is great if you are just starting a tank and youa re adding new fish.

Turbo Twist here as well. Keep the flow rate down going through it so there's maximum contact time to neuter Parasites.

I have a 36W Turbo Twist for my 37 gal tank. Basically I don't have to worry too much about flow rate.

OH! as for which one is BEST though?

the AquaUV units with the integrated wiper, without a doubt.

I would have to agree Aqua U.V.'s are the best but I'm not to fond of the wiper they get dirty and you wind up smudging the quartz sleeve. I'd say get an Aqua U.V. but without the wiper.

as far as size you'd have to match it with the pump that would be feeding it
