Comments: I have a 150 Gallon reef tank in my basement and I replaced my U.V. Sterilizer with with this product as the seal had been broken on my old one. I was starting to get hair alge on all my live rock and corals. Within 2 days the Coralife Sterilizer had almost stoped the growth and with the addition of some cleaning live stock my tank is back to normal. Thanks. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

3 years of flawless operation by KENNEDY

Comments: I have used this sterilizer for 3 years. I started using it when my 180 gallon aquarium was first set up. I am using a RIO 1400 pump with it. A few months ago I thought I would take it off and see if it really necessary since the configuration of my canopy made access simpler if it were not there. Within a few days my water turned somewhat cloudy and my fish began looking less that pleased with the change. I turned it back on and the water cleared within 48 hours. Needless to say it will remain on my tank. In three years I have never had a leak. I have checked several times to see if it needed cleaning but found no slime or residue built up inside. I do replace the bulb every 6-9 months which is an easy replacement though rather expensive at about $50. It seems comparable to other sterilizers and paired with the performance I will not complain. I would highly recommend this product to anyone. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.

Average

Coralife 18W UV by TIBURON

Comments: Nice mounting options. However,too many areas that are prone to leaks. A solid,one piece design would be better than a "take apart" model. Yes, I would recommend this product to my friends.
