Roxin 5W 7W 13W UVC Aquarium Green Clean Light Algae Bloom Clear Lamp - Aquatic Water Cleaner for Pond Fish Tank, Sump, Swimpool - Waterproof UV Sterilizer Review

This lamp solved the green algae problem that I couldn't replace with water. At first I actually tried installing it on my supine one. I tried this for a few days and then, thanks to very helpful customer support, found that the light needs to be fully submerged in water to work properly. According to the seller, partial immersion may cause slight cracking due to uneven temperature. I set up a makeshift aquarium for my fish in a large bucket with a heater and air stone. I put the fish in a…

This light is amazing. I was battling an algae problem with my water and tried all the tricks with water changes and covers to turn off the lights. Received this thing and got great water in 2.5 days. My settings and conclusions: - 5 gallon aquarium. Since the light was too much for my aquarium filter and draining seemed too difficult, I just took my fish out and put them in a standard tank for a few days. I turned on the light intermittently as they said. However, I ran it closer to 6 hours…

I had to turn it off after two days because it was working too well! This is on an uncoated filter. This is a 54 gallon aquarium that is heavily planted and stocked and powered by a canister filter and sponge air intakes. The reservoir sits under my covered outdoor patio and receives only natural sunlight. Algae is one of the biggest problems I face when working in open tanks. After getting this aquarium UV light I've been using it for at least 48 hours straight and no new algae has built up in

This thing worked great. Before I got this, I couldn't even see halfway through my tank from the side looking in. Left this light on in my filter box for about 2 hours and then turned it off before bed. when I got up he was CLEAN as always. I can look sideways over the tank and now watch TV from the other side. Almost everything you buy today has some sort of do's and don'ts sheet of crap that's more or less a joke that nobody reads and nobody follows. THIS IS A HUGE MISTAKE with this light…

UV sterilizer worked as expected. Looking at some of these reviews, they either don't know how to use it, haven't read the instructions that came with it, or both. You don't use it as a hood for your aquarium, you don't put it directly in the aquarium, and you don't turn it on 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, year-round. You should build and fence or use a sump system for a few hours every few days as needed. Direct UV exposure from fish will fill it up, continued use will kill any bacteria in…

I actually use this for a sterilizer not an aquarium but the actual use and end use is pretty much the same as its purpose. As far as I can tell (without looking at it directly, of course) it's definitely emitting a lot of light in the 254.3nm range, as intended. The 11w version is quite strong (probably a lot more than I really want, but I needed something that was readily available) and definitely produces a pretty strong smell. I'm not sure, but it might be missing part of the 185nm band and
