Hi all,
I'm setting up my 5x2x2ft tank and have all the main equipment I need.
I'm just wondering if it'll be worth adding a UV Steriliser to the system?
I'm thinking of over doing it with https://www.allpondsolutions.co.uk/aquarium/filters/uv-sterilisers/72w/.
I'm thinking about running the pump fairly high flow during the day (4-5000 l/h) and then slowing this down at night for the fish to rest (if this is possible...).
I'm thinking during this slow night period I could have the UV come on as it'll have more contact time with the bulb and just help keep any algae at bay... If this isn't possible then just have the light on for a period of time or all day.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Chris
