JBJ Lighting Submariner

In Tank UV Sterilizer 5W UV Sterilizer:
JBJ Lighting Submariner, In Tank UV Sterilizer 5W UV Sterilizer is the proactive solution for eradicating harmful micro-organisms and unattractive green free-floating algae in fresh & saltwater aquariums. This revolutionary UV sterilizer/clarifier is completely submersible, which can be placed either in the main body of the aquarium or positioned horizontally in a sump for a clutter free set-up.

This utilizes a UV-C compact fluorescent lamp that is encapsulated in our unique Quartz Sleeve that is air tight and allows for a 99% transmission rate to efficiently neutralize disease causing pathogens. All models include an integrated pump with an adjustable swivel spout and large mechanical pre-filter sponge.

A Perfect Match
We`ve taken the guess work out of sizing flow rates of pumps to lamp wattages. All models include an integrated submersible pump that is specifically sized for your aquarium which includes a swivel spout nozzle, adjustable flow valve and lamp indicator. Did we mention, you won`t need any tubes or connection fittings... it`s ready to install right out of the box.

Versatile & Compact
The Submariner is compact enough to fit in the smallest sumps and discreetly blends into aquariums. It`s streamline design and black exterior finish compliments any environment it enters.

Your First Line of Protection
The first step to long-term consistent sterilization is an adequate mechanical pre-filter to trap particulate matter and debris. Providing crystal clear water to the UV is vital to the overall success of any unit.

Water enters from the slotted sidewalls and 100% of the water is directed through the sponge and then to the UV with no bypass. Our quick-release cap instantly grants access for fast sponge replacements and regular cleaning schedules.

Encapsulated Quartz Sleeve
Our innovative design encapsulates the UV-C lamp in a commercial grade waterproof quartz sleeve that protects and allows for a 99% transmission rate for optimal performance.

Maintenance Made Simple
UV sterilizers require regular cleaning of the exterior of the quartz sleeve to remove any organic build up to effectively perform. Cleaning the quartz sleeve is made simple by unsnapping the power head off and removing the whole encapsulated quartz sleeve and rinsing off under the sink.

Excellent!

Great in-tank option! by BBALAK

Experience Level: Beginner

Posted on 3/4/2009 from BRADENTON, FL UNITED STATES

Comments: I have a 75 gallon marine tank, and the JBJ cleared it up from a dark foggy green to crystal clear in about 3 days. My tank isn't drilled, so this is a great option if you don't have a sump or don't want to buy a separate pump for an in-line type sterilizer. The sterilizer will warm up the tank about 2 degrees, so watch your temperatures. I ran it 24-7 for the first week, and later ran it for only 12 hours a day on a timer at night after the water cleared up. Check the powerhead to make sure it's spinning before you install it. Just loosen the venturi a bit if it's stuck. The foam filter will need to be cleaned about every other day until the water has cleared up. Then you can do it about every 2 weeks. My only complaint is the suction cup mount doesn’t seem to come off the sterilizer body, which makes cleaning a pain when it’s time to get it off the aquarium glass.
Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
