What is a UV Sterilizer and why Do you need it?
1) UV Sterilizers Clear your water
UV Sterilization units are excellent at keeping your water nice and clear. If your pond or aquarium is suffering from Greenwater due to free-floating algae, UV Sterilizers will take care of that for you and keep your water clear resulting in a beautiful tank for all to enjoy!
2) UV Sterilizers will keep your fish disease-free
UV Sterilizer units work by housing an Ultraviolet Bulb, which emits UV rays within the 254nm range. This means that any free-floating algae, bacteria, parasites or viruses that pass through the ultraviolet bulb will have their DNA and RNA structure disrupted, which prevents them from reproducing, resulting in a stable and steady environment with disease and harmful microorganisms under control.
3) UV Sterilizers can run 24/7
Having a UV Sterilizer means having a crystal clear pond or aquarium & worry-free aquatic life. When purchasing an Aqua Ultraviolet UV Sterilizer, you can rest assured knowing that your aquatic life will have a healthy and clean environment at all times during the day.
