UV

300-400 gph
You want pump in tank and return into tank

You can also place the pump in the area where the drain is from the display and return the water to the area where your main return pump is.

Interesting.. so minimum flow AquaUV suggests for SaltWater tanks is 1,066 GPH for a 57W system.. doesn't this slow rate kill any of the beneficial stuff? I understand most of the beneficial bacteria is on the rocks and sand and not free flowing in the water, but just wondering why there is such a big difference between suggested and numbers you are using

Thanks, I was planning to put it after the socks.. current layout is socks--> empty chamber--> Skimmer--> Return Pump.. Earlier was planning to use empty chamber for reefmat, now planning to use it for UV instead

I’ve read it. Maybe you read it again. I answered what you asked. There is no antibiotics without killing food stuff, it’s how it works
