Whate size UV filter

[Hettie_48]

Hi
I have a 370 litre tank and was wondering what UV filter to get? And where from?
Thanks

The best one you can afford I guess.

For your tank size, I would recommend 18W above.

Some named brands : Pondmaster UV, DeBary Aqua-UV , AA Internal UV Steriliser

You can get from your LFS.

What about Hozelock? They're THE name brand - they have had UVC's on the market in Australia since 1985 - we've stocked them since 1985!

Have a look at http://www.rockaroundtheblock.com.au...ies.asp?cID=12

Keep in mind, the Pondmaster models may have plastic sleeves which don't allow all the UV light through. As you'll read on the link above, Hozelock are a bit more expensive because they have quartz sleeves which let almost all the UV light through to the water. As a result, they can use smaller (lower wattage) globes to do the same job.

You can slow the water down more to increase the radiation level each drop of water receives.

Feel free to give us a call to discuss if you need assistance.

Just to clarify, the Pondmasters use quartz sleeves as well, this has been the case for the past 18mths.

I know this first hand, after dropping one - ouch

(the older models used a perspex/plastic sleeve)
