What brand is the cheapest but decent? And when I say cheap I'm thinking 30-40 dollars. And it's for a 55 gallon tank.

It really depends on what your asking a UV sterilizer to do. Is it for just algae control? Are you looking to improve the Redox value? Are you looking to kill or control parasites and disease or bad bacteria?What brand is the cheapest but decent? And when I say cheap I'm thinking 30-40 dollars. And it's for a 55 gallon tank.

The problem and even as its explained on the site. when it comes to UV sterilizers. You can have good but they cost and they work very well at what they do and they last. OR you can get cheap and they dont do a whole lot and you get what you pay (which is poor quality short lived very ineffective) for and most dont last long and bulb effective life is short.I think he meant good and inexpensive. I have: SunSun CUP-609 9 Watt UV Pump/Filter from http://www.americanaquariumproducts.com/InternalUVSterilizer.html in my 265. I initially got it to get rid of the algae that made my tank look like green pea soup which it did in about 5 days.
Like someone else said this site has a lot of info, and they are very helpful when you ask them questions.
